SPECIFICATIONS
Trip Free
Will trip open on overload, even when forcibly held in the ON position. This pre-
vents the operator from damaging the circuit by holding on the protector.
Trip Indication
The operating handle moves positively to the OFF position on overload.
Ambient Operation
IAG/IUG/IEG/CEG/LEG protectors operate in temperatures between –40° C to
+85° C.
Insulation Resistance
Not less than 100 megohms at 500 volts DC.
Dielectric Strength
IAG/IUG/IEG/CEG/LEG protectors withstand 3750Vac, 60Hz for 60 seconds
between all electrically isolated terminals, except auxiliary switch terminals shall
withstand 600Vac, 60Hz for REG and REC types. Four terminal dual coil and relay
construction (not offered in the IEG) will withstand 1500Vac.
Endurance
Operating as a switch, the operating life exceeds 10,000 operations at a rate of 6
per minute when tested as follows: 6000 OPS @ rated current plus 4000 OPS @ at
no load.
Electrical Characteristics
.050-50 amperes; 80Vdc Max., 240Vac Max., 50/60Hz and .050-30 amperes: 250Vac
Max., 400Hz. Units above 30 amps are not suitable for across-the-line motor
starting.
Auxiliary Switch
When supplied shall be SPDT configuration. Non VDE approved switches have a
maximum UL rating of 10.0 amperes, 250 volts, 60Hz; 3.0 amperes, 50 volts DC, 1
amperes, 80 volts DC (REC) type or 0.1 amperes, 125 volts, 60Hz. (REG type).
VDE approved switches have a maximum UL rating of 10.0 amperes, 250 volts,
60Hz, 1 amperes, 80 volts DC (REG type); or 0.1 amperes, 125 volts, 60Hz (REG
type); or 0.1 amperes, 125 volts, 60Hz (REG type).
Moisture Resistance
Meets all the requirements of MIL-PRF-55629 when tested in accordance with
Method 106 of MIL-STD-202.
Salt Spray (Corrosion)
Meets the requirements of MIL-PRF-55629 when tested in accordance with
Method 101 of MIL-STD-202.
Shock
Circuit protectors shall not trip when tested per MIL-STD-202, Method 213, Test
Condition I with 100% rated current applied to delayed units, except 90% current in
plane 4 (i.e., handle down). Instantaneous units shall have 80% rated current
applied in all planes.
Construction
Series, shunt, relay and series with auxiliary switch available in various delays
and combinations.
Vibration
Circuit protector shall not trip when vibrated per MIL-STD-202, Method 204, Test
Condition A with 100% rated current applied to delayed units and 80% rated cur-
rent to instantaneous units.
VDE Approval
IEG is VDE approved under VDE 0642 (EN60934). The IEG has 8mm creepage and
clearance between the main circuit and the following areas:
A. Operator accessible area around the handle.
B. The mounting inserts or brackets.
C. The auxiliary switch circuit.
D. Between poles.
Care must be taken to maintain spacings at the terminals when wired. The VDE
approval for standard terminals is not for use with bare wire. A crimp type lug is
required. In addition, all VDE approved units will be in compliance with specific
CE Directives. These units will be marked as CE Compliant.
UL1500 (Marine Ignition Protected)
IDG/IDGH is approved for Marine Ignition Protection
UL489A Listed
The CEG is dimensionally the same as the popular IEG, but provides UL listing to
UL489A. Available in one to three poles, in series, series with auxiliary switch,
shunt, dual coil and voltage trip configurations. As a circuit breaker, the CEG pro-
vides communication equipment manufacturers with a UL listed circuit breaker in
a very compact package that meets the stringent environmental requirements of
today’s marketplace. This makes the CEG ideal for switching, transmission and
wireless applications.
UL489 Listed
The LEG is dimensionally the same as the popular IEG, but provides UL listing to
UL489. Available with one or two poles, in series, series with auxiliary switch,
shunt and three-terminal dual coil configurations. As a circuit breaker, the LEG
provides equipment manufacturers with a UL listed magnetic hydaulic circuit
breaker in the most compact package available on the market.
General notes:
All supplementary protectors are of the overcurrent (OC) type
The family of protectors has been evaluated for end use application for use groups (UG) A, B, C and D
The terminals (FW) are suitable for factory wiring only (0)
The maximum voltage ratings for which the protectors have been tested are shown in the chart
The current is the amperage range that the protectors have been tested
The tripping current (TC) for all of the protectors is “1” (in the range of 125% to 135% of ampere rating except for
the 400Hz protectors which is “2” (more than 135% of ampere rating)
The overload rating (OL) - designates whether the protector has been tested for general use or motor starting
applications.
0 – tested at 1.5 times amp rating for general use
1 – tested at 6 times AC rating or 10 times DC rating for motor starting
The short circuit current rating (SC) – The short circuit rating in amperes following a letter and number designating the
test conditions and any calibration following the short circuit test is defined below:
C – Indicates short circuit test was conducted with series overcurrent protection
U – Indicates short circuit test was conducted without series overcurrent protection
1 – Indicates a recalibration was not conducted as part of the short circuit testing
2 – Indicates a recalibration was performed as part of the short circuit testing
3 – Indicates recalibration was performed along with the dielectric and voltage withstand for “Suitable for Further Use”
