Description
Designed to handle moderate inrush currents, this 16-amp, two-pole miniature circuit breaker provides essential thermal-magnetic protection. It mounts onto standard DIN rail systems within industrial control panels and replaces the older WMZT2C16 model. Operating at 480Y/277VAC with a 14 kAIC interrupting capacity, the device utilizes a C-curve trip profile and features a common trip mechanism to ensure simultaneous disconnection of both poles during an electrical fault.Specifications

Product FAQs
8 answersWhat applications is the C-curve trip characteristic on this breaker suited for?
The C-curve characteristic (tripping at 5 to 10 times the rated current) is designed for applications with medium levels of inrush current. This makes it ideal for small transformers, lighting loads, pilot devices, and control circuits.
Can the FAZ-C16/2-NA be used for branch circuit protection?
Yes. The FAZ-C16/2-NA is a UL 489 listed miniature circuit breaker, meaning it is fully rated for branch circuit protection in North America, unlike UL 1077 supplementary protectors.
How is the Eaton FAZ-C16/2-NA breaker mounted in a control panel?
This breaker is designed to snap directly onto a standard 35mm DIN rail. It can also be integrated with bus connectors and feeder terminals for wiring multiple breaker arrays.
What wire sizes are accepted by the box lug terminals on this 16A breaker?
The screw clamp box terminals accept 18 to 6 AWG for a single wire connection, or 18 to 10 AWG when connecting two wires.
Is the FAZ-C16/2-NA a current-limiting circuit breaker?
Yes, this breaker features a current-limiting design that interrupts fault currents within one-half cycle. This reduces the peak let-through energy, providing superior protection against short-circuit damage.
Can this 2-pole breaker be used in DC applications?
Yes, the FAZ-C16/2-NA is rated for DC applications up to 96 VDC, providing a 10 kAIC interrupting rating at that voltage.
What is the alternate catalog number or cross-reference for the FAZ-C16/2-NA?
This breaker is also known by its Eaton article number 102170.
Is the FAZ-C16/2-NA compatible with standard FAZ accessories?
Yes, the FAZ-NA series leverages the same form and fit as the standard FAZ family, making it compatible with the same auxiliary contacts, shunt trips, and busbar accessories.
