Part of the QOU series by Square D, this 3-pole, 20A miniature circuit breaker is designed for commercial applications requiring auxiliary signaling. It features a factory-installed 1A/1B auxiliary switch for remote status indication. The unit mount design allows for flexible installation on DIN rails, surface mounting, or flush mounting within OEM panels. Rated for 10 kAIC at 240VAC, it includes reversible line and load lugs, Visi-Trip indication, and HACR certification for HVAC equipment.
What does the -1200 suffix indicate on the QOU320-1200 circuit breaker?
The -1200 suffix means this breaker includes a factory-installed auxiliary switch. This switch monitors the contact status and provides a remote signal to indicate whether the breaker contacts are open or closed.
Is the QOU320-1200 compatible with standard Square D QO load centers?
No, QOU breakers are unit-mount devices designed for OEM panels, control panels, and DIN rail systems. They do not plug into or bolt onto standard QO or QOB load centers and panelboards.
How is the Square D QOU320-1200 mounted in a panel?
This unit-mount breaker features slotted box lugs on both the line and load sides. It can be flush-mounted, surface-mounted, or installed on a standard 35mm DIN rail using the appropriate mounting hardware.
Can the QOU320-1200 be reverse fed?
Yes, QOU miniature circuit breakers are fully tested, UL Listed, and CSA certified for reverse connection. They do not have restrictive line or load markings, allowing you to feed power from either side.
What types of applications is the 48 VDC rating on the QOU320-1200 intended for?
The 48 VDC rating with a 5 kA interrupting capacity makes this breaker ideal for protecting industrial control circuits, automation equipment, and low-voltage DC power supplies.
Does the QOU320-1200 feature a tripped indicator?
Yes, it includes the Square D Visi-Trip indicator. When the breaker trips due to an overload or short circuit, a red indicator becomes highly visible to help you quickly identify the faulted circuit.
How does the thermal-magnetic trip mechanism operate on the QOU320-1200?
The fixed thermal element provides delayed tripping to prevent nuisance trips from mild overloads, while the magnetic element responds instantaneously to clear severe short circuits.
