Compact® NSF and NSJ 150 to 600 A Circuit Breakers

Section 13—Supplementary Technical Information

REFLEX TRIPPING

All Compact® NS circuit breakers and switches incorporate the exclusive reflex tripping system.

This extremely simple system breaks very high fault currents by mechanically tripping the device via a "piston" actuated directly by the pressure produced in the breaking units resulting from a short circuit.

For high short-circuit thermal withstand, this system provides a faster break. Reflex tripping curves are exclusively a function of the circuit breaker rating.
