Product FAQs
7 answersWhat older Siemens breakers does the SPD6A160LI replace?
This Sensitrip IV PD-frame breaker serves as an exact functional replacement for the legacy Siemens SPD69160 molded case circuit breaker.
Are line and load lugs included with the SPD6A160LI?
No, this breaker is typically supplied without lugs. Line and load lug kits must be purchased separately and sized according to the specific wire requirements of your installation.
What does the "A" in the SPD6A160LI catalog number mean?
The "A" designates that the breaker is equipped with an advanced Sensitrip solid-state electronic trip unit, as opposed to the basic trip unit found on "B" models like the SPD6B160LI.
What does the "LI" designation stand for on this trip unit?
The "LI" indicates that the electronic trip unit provides adjustable Long-Time (L) and Instantaneous (I) trip functions for precise overcurrent and short-circuit protection.
Is the SPD6A160LI suitable for reverse feed applications?
Yes, it is rated for reverse feed applications. The factory-assembled, non-interchangeable trip unit complies with UL 489 requirements for reverse feeding.
What types of equipment is the SPD6A160LI compatible with?
This bolt-on PD-frame breaker is designed for use in Siemens Sentron switchboards, power panelboards, and standalone enclosures. It is also compatible with many legacy ITE Sentron applications.
How does the advanced trip unit improve maintenance safety?
The advanced electronic trip unit features Dynamic Arc Flash Sentry (DAS). This allows technicians to temporarily lower the instantaneous trip threshold, reducing potential arc flash energy levels while working near live equipment.
