●Low-voltage distribution protection
◆ CM3，CM3E，CM3L distribution breakers can be used in AC50/60Hz TN，TT，IT distribution systems.They
meet demand of GB50054-2011 “about device selection”.
◆CM3DC breaker can be used in systems of no-grounding,negative grounding,core point grounding.
◆Reliable contact indication and isolating function of all series breakers meet demand of GB50054 isolating device.
●Motor circuit protection
◆ CM3， CM3E， CM3L breakers for motor protection can provide over current for motor-starter， cable， and
motor.The protecting characteristic meets GB14048.4,The application meets GB50055.
◆ The width of CM3-250C， 100C and CM3-63 is only 60mm,can be installed in controlling box to protect
equipment.
●Residual current protect
◆ CM3L breaker provide protection of persons against hazardous voltage due to defective insulation. it also provide
,
protection against fire due to defective insulation.example cable s insulation is defected.
◆CM3L breaker of 30mA rated residual operating current can provide additional protection of persons against direct
contact.
◆ CM3L breaker can provide type A residual current protection of residual alternating current superimposed on a
smooth direct current.It meats selecting demand of GB50054，GB13955 for residual current protection device.
◆Actuating time meets calss co-ordination of GB13955.
◆Providing solution of AC690V residual current protection.
◆Achiving residual current automatic re-closing function by matching automatic re-closing module
●Switching function
◆ Two breakers of mounting mechanical interlock mechanism can achive two equipment manual switching of two
supplies for one equipment or two equipment for one supply.
◆ Achiving two supplies automatic switching by two mechanical and electrical interlock breakers matching
controlling （seeing catalog of CA1/CA1B series automatic transfer switching）.

 PRODUCT SERIES DESCRIPTION

CM3 CM3E CM3L CM3DC

CM3,CM3E,CM3L,CM3DC moulded case circuit breakers (hereafter reffered to as simply breakers) CM1 series
upper class products by my company. They are classified four series:
——Thermal/magnetic CM3 breakers,having six frames of 63A,100A,250A,400A,630A,800A,current is 10A to
800A.
——Electronic CM3E breakers,having five frames of 100A,250A,400A,630A,800A,current is 12.5A to 800A.
—— In cor p orat i ng res i d ua l cu rr en t p r otec tion CM 3L bre ak er s ,ha ving fou r fr ame s of
100A,225A,400A,630A,current is 10A to 630A, residual current is 30mA to 30A.
——Direct current CM3DC breakers,having frames of 100A,250A,400A,630A,800A,current 10A~800A.

◆ The breakers,according to rated limited shirt-circuit breaking capacity values,are classified four classes of type
C(basic),type L (standard),type M (second high breaking),type H (high breaking).
◆ CM3 breaker of breaking capacity C,L,M classes and CM3E breaker of breaking capacity M class can be
connected into outgoing line when AC400V distribution system.
◆All seres breakers can be installed horizontally (transverse) or vertically (upright) or lying down flatly.
◆All seres breakers have isolating function and corressponding synbol is shown as .
◆ The breakers of CM3-100/250 type L/M/H,and CM3-400,630 type C/L/M/H,and CM3-800 type L/M/H and
neutral type A,B of four poles above specifications,can be with for specical "overload alarm and no-tripping"， This
eusure supply continuity and meet demand of GB50054 6.3.6 item.
◆ CM3L breaker can be with for leakage alarm and no-tripping module,This avoids that power cut gives rise to
heavy losses，It meets demand of GB13955-2005 4.6 item.
◆The breakers are complimance with following standards:
IEC 60947-1 Low-voltage switchgear and cintrolgear General rules.
IEC 60947-2 Low-voltage switchgear and cintrolgear Circuit-breakers.
IEC 60947-4-1 Low-voltage switchgear and cintrolgear Electromechanical Contactors and motor starters (including
motor protector)

 ENVIRONMENT CONDITIONS FOR OPERATION AND INSTALLATION

●Ambient temperature: -5℃~+40℃；

●Elevation≤2000m；
●Relative humidity: not exceed 50% at the maximum ambient temperature of +40℃, but higher relative humidity at
the lower temperature, for example, 90% at 20℃. Special measures should be taken considering the dews on product
surface due to temperature change；
●Pollution protection: 3 grade；
● The breakers are tested by GB/T2423.10,can withstand vibration of frequency range 2Hz~13.2Hz,displacement
±1mm and frequency range 13.2Hz~100Hz,acceleration ± 0.7g；
●Installing categories: Ⅲ for the main circuit；Ⅱ for other auxiliary and control circuits；
●The breaker is suitable in electromagnetic environment A;
● Damp heat type（TH）breakers are tested by GB/T2423.4、GB/T2423.18,can bear the influence of moisture in
the air of salt fog and oil fog or mould；
● There must be not any explosive medium, and there must be not any gas which would corrode metal or any
conducting dust which would destory the insulation；
●The place would not be invaded by rain and snow；
●Sevice condition:
