Specifications
■ Engineering data and Characteristics
Technical Data according to IEC/EN 60947-1, 60947-2, 60947-4-1 and VDE 0660
If the short-circuit current exceeds the rated short-circuit breaking
capacity of the circuit-breaker specified in the tables at the installation point, a back-up fuse is to be used. The maximum rated current
for the back-up fuse is specified in the tables. These fuses are only
suitable for the short-circuit-currents as indicated on the fuses.
This table shows the rated ultimate short-circuit breaking capacity Icu
and the rated service short-circuit breaking capacity Ics of the J7MN
circuit-breakers with different operational voltages as a function of
the rated current In of the circuit-breakers. The circuit-breakers can
be fed at the top or bottom supply terminals without any reduction of
the rated data.

The tripping characteristic of electromagnetic overcurrent releases (short-circuit releases)
The tripping characteristic of the inverse-time delayed overload releases apply for DC and AC with a frequency of 0 to 400 Hz.
At operating temperature, the tripping times of the thermal releases are reduced to approximately 25 %.
The characteristic shown here is a schematic representation of circuit-breakers for all ranges.
Current limiting characteristics and I²t characteristics are available on request.

Circuit breakers J7MN as "Combination Motor Controller Type E" and " Suitable for Group Installation"
J7MN-9R are approved to UL 508 in combination with the insulation
barriers J7MN-TB100. According to CSA these terminal blocks can
be omitted when the device is used as "Combination Motor Controller Type E“.
Acc to UL508 demands a line-side 1 inch air and 2 inch creepage
distance for „Combination Motor Controller Type E“ is necessary.
Therefore circuit breaker J7MN-3R is approved to UL 508 in combination with the Terminal block J75-BTC-25-EC. Circuit-breakers

Descriptions
Releases
Circuit-breakers J7MN are equipped with bimetallic-based, inversetime delayed overload releases and with instantaneous overcurrent
releases (electromagnetic short-circuit releases). The overload
releases can be set in accordance with the load current. The overcurrent releases are permanently set to a value 13 times the rated
current and thus enable trouble-free start-up of motors. The scale
cover can be sealed to prevent unauthorized adjustments to the set
current.
Operating mechanisms
Circuit-breakers J7MN-3P are actuated via a rocker operating mechanism and circuit-breakers J7MN-3R, J7MN-6R and J7MN-9R via a
rotary operating mechanism. An electrical signal can be output, at all
Circuit-breakers, via a signalling switch to indicate that the Circuitbreaker has tripped. All operating mechanisms can be locked in the 0
position with a padlock (shackle diameter 3.5 to 4.5 mm). The J7MN
Circuit-breakers fulfil the isolation characteristics specified in IEC
60947-2.
Operating conditions
premature tripping due to phase failure sensitivity, the three conducting paths must always be uniformly loaded. The conducting paths
must be connected in series in the case of single-phase loads.
Short-circuit protection
The short-circuit releases of J7MN circuit-breakers disconnect the
faulty load feeder from the system in the event of a short circuit and
thus prevent any further damage from being caused. Circuit-breakers
with a short-circuit breaking capacity of 50 kA or 100 kA at a voltage
of 400 V AC are practically short-circuit-proof at this voltage, as
higher short-circuit currents are not usually encountered at the installation point. Back-up fuses are only necessary if the short-circuit current at the installation point exceeds the rated ultimate short-circuit
breaking capacity of the circuit-breakers.
Motor protection
The tripping characteristics of J7MN circuit-breakers are designed
mainly to protect three-phase induction motors. The circuit-breakers
are therefore also referred to as Manual Motor Starters. The current
of the motor to be protected is set with the aid of the scale.
Line protection
Circuit-breakers J7MN are suitable for use in any climate. They are
designed for operation in enclosed rooms under normal conditions
(e. g. no dust, corrosive vapours or harmful gases). Suitable enclosures must be provided for installation in dusty or damp rooms. Circuit-breakers J7MN can also be fed from below. In order to prevent
J7MN Circuit-breakers for motor protection are also suitable for line
protection. The J7MN Circuit-breakers fulfil the isolation conditions of
IEC 60 947-3 as well as the additional test conditions for circuitbreakers with isolation characteristics specified in IEC 60947-2. Taking IEC 60 204-1 into consideration, they can thus be implemented
as main and EMERGENCY STOP switches. Door-coupling rotary
operating mechanism do not fulfil the isolation characteristics.
