Recyclability potential, in %
information_stroke
The calculation of the recyclability potential relies on the scenario "France - parts are shredded" of TR62635 considering all parts in the product and materials recyclability. We recognized that this may not always allow comparison with other competitor offers on the market and are waiting for a common standard to be published end of 2026.

Description
arrow2_down
This ComPacT NSX160N is a complete 3P 3d fixed circuit breaker designed to optimize space and breaking capacity. It is an optimal choice for all standard and specific applications. The breaking capacity (Icu) is 50KA rms at 415VAC 50/60Hz. The operational voltage is 690VAC 50/60Hz. This product embeds an electronic MicroLogic 2.2 trip unit, with 160A rating. MicroLogic 2.2 trip unit provides adjustable long time and short time protections, and a fixed instantaneous protection. This 3 poles version (105mm x 161mm x 86mm) comes with a variety of optional functions and accessories. It is compliant with international standards (IEC 60947), CCC, EAC and marine specifications. ComPacT NSX160N is part of Schneider Electric EcoStruxure Power architecture.
