Hager miniature circuit breaker, characteristic curve C, 1-pole, 16A, QC - MCS116

The Hager MCS116 miniature circuit breaker offers reliable protection for electrical circuits and, thanks to QuickConnect (QC) technology, enables particularly quick and tool-free installation. With a rated current of 16 A and a C-curve tripping characteristic, this single-pole circuit breaker is ideally suited for applications where devices draw higher currents when switched on, such as motors or lighting systems in residential and commercial buildings.

Technical details:

• Manufacturer : Hager
  
• Model : MCS116
  
• Product type : Miniature circuit breaker (MCB)
  
• Number of poles : 1-pole – protects a single conductor in the circuit
  
• Rated current (In) : 16 A – suitable for circuits with higher current requirements
  
• Breaking capacity : 6 kA – high short-circuit withstand capability for residential and commercial applications
  
• Tripping characteristic : Characteristic curve C – trips at 5–10 times the rated current and is ideal for circuits with devices that draw more current for short periods.
  
• QuickConnect (QC) : Tool-free wiring for fast and secure installation
  
• Power supply : 230/400 V AC – compatible with common AC power grids
  
• Mounting type : DIN rail – allows for space-saving installation in the distribution box
  
• Operating temperature range : -25°C to +70°C – reliable operation even under varying ambient temperatures
  
• Protection class : IP20 – Protection against contact and foreign objects, ideal for dry indoor areas
  

Special features:

• QuickConnect technology (QC) : Hager's QuickConnect technology enables tool-free and rapid wiring. Cables are simply inserted into the terminals and securely fixed, significantly reducing installation time and ensuring stable connections.
  
• C-curve for devices with high inrush currents : The C-curve tripping characteristic makes the MCS116 the ideal choice for circuits where devices with briefly increased inrush currents are operated, such as motors or transformers. The circuit breaker trips at 5–10 times the rated current, thus reliably protecting against overload and short circuit.
  
• 6 kA switching capacity for high safety : With a switching capacity of 6 kA, the MCS116 offers high protection and proves itself particularly in demanding household and commercial installations.
  
• Space-saving design : The MCS116 can be mounted on a DIN rail, saving space, which is particularly advantageous in compact distribution boards. Clear labeling and an ergonomic switch lever also make it easy to use.
  

Scope:

The Hager MCS116 miniature circuit breaker is perfectly suited for protecting electrical circuits in residential and commercial buildings that are subject to high inrush currents, such as heating systems, lighting installations, or electric motors. The QuickConnect technology is particularly time-saving and ideal for installations where efficiency and safety are paramount.

With the Hager MCS116, you are choosing a powerful, reliable and particularly easy-to-install protective device that meets the highest safety standards and the requirements of modern electrical installations.
