HYDRAULIC MAGNETIC CIRCUIT PROTECTORS

General Description

In today’s applications, ambient operating temperatures present circuit protection challenges for many design engineers. High current thermal protective

devices may not provide the desired degree of protection. The JAE/JRE/JLE series magnetichydraulic circuit protector addresses this issue by providing

circuit protection for high current applications with a consistent trip point over temperatures ranging from –40°C to +85°C.

This series, which includes the Airpax JAE, JAM, JLE, JRE, JRM, JTM, and JLM series, is a family of circuit protectors available in one to six pole

assemblies with a variety of configurations and terminal styles. The principle member of this family is the JLE, an F-frame “listed circuit breaker” which

complies with conditions of UL-489. Other members of the family include the JTE, for telecommunication applications and complies to UL-489A, and

the JAE, a special construction version. In addition, the JAE is now in compliance with the standards used in Australia and New Zealand, AS 60947.2-

2005 (equivalent to IEC 60947-2:2006+A1).

The JAE/JRE/JLE series magnetic-hydraulic circuit protector provides circuit protection for high current applications. It provides a consistent trip point

over temperatures ranging from –40°C to +85°C.
