1. Dimensions

Rozměrové schema jističe BONEGA<sup>®</sup> E6000 EThe extraordinary small dimensions (especially the height is only 81 mm) rank the DPN BONEGA® P-E-P to the smallest ones worldwide within the category of the breaking capacity up to 6 kA.

In the switchboard (in the covered part), remains more space for leading and connecting of conductors. This property can be appreciated especially when using those DPN in small plastic household switchboards.

2. Characteristic

The DPN BONEGA® P-E-P has two different releases acting onto the switching mechanism::

Vnitřní pohled do jističe BONEGA®P-E-P

1.) Thermal over-current release for overcurrent protection, working with time lag

2.) Electromagnetic high-speed release with ejecting cage for immediate short-circuit protection
They are thus intended to protect the electrical distribution systems and electrical devices against short-circuit (if the defect has been caused by failure or incorrect connection) and to protect the electrical distribution system against overload (if the circuit has not been damaged but an extreme thermal overload occurred which could damage the wiring). In contrast to traditional DPNs, they disconnect also the null conductor (N).

They are suitable especially for common installation into switchboards and switching points of low-voltage end circuits. They are designed mostly for alternating current. If you require using them for direct current, please, contact our technical support.
They bear the logo with the trademark BONEGA® . It is a traditional brand since 1992. The name BONEGA®comes from the ESPERANTO language and in that language, BONEGA®means excellent, good.

 

They are manufactured in accordance with a particular European standard CSN EN 60898, as amended. They are able to comply with any design requirements for arrangement of DPNs with regard to the selectivity and requirements for individual characteristics B and C.

- the product complies with the conditions necessary for evaluation if our product conforms to the Czech rules
- the product complies with the European conditions for Declaration on Conformity
- the product has received the SEMCO Certificate
- the product has received the KEMA Certificate

The DPNs allow the plentiful accessories (low-voltage releases, voltage releases, auxiliary contacts etc.) to be linked very easily. In this way, its application can be extended to overvoltage or undervoltage protection, control, regulation, remote control, remote indication of switch-on and switch-off positions of the DPN, programming and measurement etc. The aforementioned combinations allow application in the range of control within difficult automation processes.

These accessories can be mutually interconnected (e.g. DPN + low-voltage release+ auxiliary indication contact etc.) and can form various combinations.

3. Technical parameters

Technical data

Number of poles: 1
Nominal currents ln (A): 6,10,13,16,20,25,32
Characteristics: B (or L), also “V” before. The short-circuit release is to be set up to 3 ln through 5 ln. It serves especially for protection of circuits with such devices which do not cause any current surges (lights or socket circuits etc.)
C (or U), also K before. The short-circuit release is to be set up to 5 ln through 10 ln. It serves especially for protection of circuits with such devices which cause some current surges (groups of bulbs, motors etc.)
Nominal voltage: ~ 230 V 50/60 Hz
Rupturing capacity: EN 60898 - 6.000 A
Protection:

IP 20 for a sole DPN - with its design, it protects against a hazardous finger touch as well as against small foreign objects; it is without any protection against water leakage ( water protection is to be solved with design of the switchboard casing )
IP 40 for a built-in DPN - with its design, it protects against a hazardous finger or instrument touch as well as against very small foreign objects; it is without any protection against water leakage ( water protection is to be solved with design of the switchboard casing )
Minimum ambient temperature: - 40 ºC
Maximum ambient temperature: +125 ºC
Operation temperature: - 5 ºC to +40 ºC pursuant to ČSN EN 60898
Gauging temperature: +30 ºC pursuant to CSN (it is possible to agree upon different temperature)
Max. pre-inserted fuse: 100 A gG (>10 kA)
Mechanical lifetime: >= 20.000 cycles
Electrical lifetime: >= 8.000 cycles
Operational position: arbitrary
Fastening: by means of an unique snap mechanism (with arrestment in final positions) the carrying DIN strip EN 50022, width 35 mm, or even onto the flat surface by means of screws
Removal from the DIN strip by means of an unique auxiliary snap mechanism; the DPN's can be removed even from a row of devices mutually interconnected by a forked or reed (rack) strip without necessity to dismantle the whole interconnecting strip
Input terminals: - clip terminals (with barrier layer), snap- locked against the worse input of a conductor

- the input and output can be interchanged

- they enable more conductors as well as interconnecting strips to be connected

Connectability of conductors (maximum cross-sections): 16 mm2 solid conductor, 11 mm2 stranded conductor
Terminal protection: IP 20
Tightening moment for terminals: 2 Nm (combined slotted-head screw)
Manufactured according to the standard: ČSN EN 60898
Power limiting class 3
Switch-off speed (see oscilograms): under 10 ms

Coloured levers:

For better distinction among circuits in the switchboards, we supply DPNs with distinction of nominal currents by means of colored levers corresponding to the colours of turn fuses:

6 A green
10 A red
13 A sand
16 A gray
20 A blue
25 A yellow
32 A violet
Can be delivered also with only black levers 1-63 A black
