The Schneider VigiPacT RH197P is an ideal solution for ensuring safety and reliability in your electrical system.
How does the Schneider Residual Current Monitoring System work?
- Mounted on a front panel for easy access.
- Measures leakage current through a separate toroid sensor (not included).
- Trips the connected circuit breaker if the leakage current exceeds a user-defined threshold
Features of Schneider Residual Current Monitoring System
- Wide range of sensitivity: Adjustable from 30 mA to 30 A for tailored protection.
- Customizable time delay: Selectable between instant and 4.5 seconds to suit specific applications.
- Type A earth leakage protection: Covers AC, pulsating DC, and mixed AC/DC residual currents.
- Flexible reset options: Choose between manual or automatic reset after a fault.
- High voltage monitoring: Up to 1000 VAC for a wider range of applications.
- Durable construction: IP40 enclosure protects against dust and limited water ingress.
- Schneider Electric compatibility: Requires a compatible Schneider Electric type A toroid or rectangular sensor (sold separately).
