Hi, I want to purchase a MCCB for my 16s 280ah battery bank to have a protection but also a switch to isolate the battery bank.
I live in the netherlands and struggle to find a shop in europe that sells 125A DC breakers for a reasonable price. Since this is a essential piece of safety equipment I prefer to use one of the major brands and not shop on Aliexpress. I work for a US company and therefore also working sometimes with US manufactured battery chargers from ABC, American Battery chargers and we never head issues with the Carling Technolgies breakers and therefore I would prefer to purchase these. I found them on Ebay but not 100% sure if they are correct for the application.
Here is the advertisement on ebay:https://www.ebay.com/itm/284466531975?hash=item423b86ce87:g:trQAAOSwRKVhUO0m
Carling Technologies 125A DC 2-Pole Circuit Breaker EA2-B2-14-912-22A-BC.
When I look in the spec sheet from carling for the specific model there is a note behind the specific amp rating of 125A. For me it is unclear what they mean with this. Does someone know if this CB will function to open when current is to high or do they mean it is a switch only and it doesn't have a protection function?
25 A rating (Code 912) available as a Switch Only (Circuit Code A), rated 125 VDC (Code B).
