The MP Series 53 is designed specifically to bring together two traditionally separated products (breaker/switch) into a single small package device that may be conveniently located for ease of access. The MP Series 53 combines key attributes required of ABYC circuit breakers (UL1077 & SAE J1428) and the Marine Power switching standards (UL1107). This new innovative product provides upstream backup short circuit protection of up to 3,000 amperes for the branch house circuits. This device helps prevent battery draw down while the switch is in the off position while providing savings in space, labor, and wiring costs.

A new standard for DIN rail-mounting hydraulic-magnetic circuit breakers. The Heinemann ADR series is the evident choice for manufacturers willing to integrate their design with hydraulic-magnetic technology without additional redesign effort. In addition to all the advantages of hydraulic-magnetic circuit breakers such as precise, stable, and reliable protection against overload or short-circuits, ADR provides the same Fit and Form as standard MCB: a great advantage for simplifying refurbishment or technology upgrade.
Features
- Hydraulic-magnetic overcurrent and fast short-circuit protections
- Different tripping curves
- In-Rush capabilities (8x – 15x – 22xIn) in standard
- Changeover (SPDT) auxiliary contact (C-NO-NC) embedded on the same pole as the circuit breaker
- Different configurations and types of auxiliary contact connections
- Midtrip options: handle falls to horizontal position on electrical tripping
- Trip-free design: breaker cannot be defeated by holding the handle in the ON position
- Power to the circuit breakers can be fed from the line or load side
- Easy installation on DIN 35mm rail according to DIN 50022 (IEC/EN60715)
- Module width of only 17.5 mm (per pole)
- Captive screws cannot be lost
- Captive terminals
- Optional handle locking system for Logout/Tagout

The C Series is popular in outdoor locations, in either high-temperature or low-temperature environments where nuisance tripping might have been a problem in the past. The C Series is built for a wide range of applications and is one of the most versatile designs. From heating and air conditioning to modern railcars, the C Series breaker is built for the most demanding industrial applications.
Features
- Environmental, Vibration, and Shock Resistant: Mil-spec qualification for fungus resistance, humidity, salt spray resistance, and shock vibration resistance.
- Heat-Induced Nuisance Tripping Eliminated: The protector is designed to “hold in” at 100% continuous rated current, regardless of ambient temperatures from -40°C +85°C.
- Immediate Reset After Trip: The protector can be reset (closed) immediately after an overcurrent trip without a “cooling off” period.
- 1/2 Cycle High Inrush Tolerance – 8X (standard) and 25x: The protector is available with different levels of tolerance to 1/2 cycle current spikes. Standard tolerance is 8X the continuous current rating; in addition, 25X is also available.
- Overcurrent Curves, Long, Medium, or Short Delay: Time characteristic curves are available as Short, Medium, and Long Delay.

The GH Series breaker offers the benefits of hydraulic-magnetic protection in a compact, economical design. Because of their ability to furnish both close-rated locked rotor protection and running overcurrent protection without derating in extreme and highly variable ambient conditions, they are popular in a variety of industries — air conditioning, electric heating, computer main frame and central processing, transportation, and many others.
Features
- Fungus and Humidity Resistance: Provided in accordance with MIL-STD-202 by treating all ferrous parts with a special moisture-resistant finish and using special springs and fungus-resistant cases, covers, and handles.
- Shock: Tested in accordance with MIL-STD-202, Method 213, Test Condition I (100G’s at 6 milliseconds).
- Vibration: Tested in accordance with MIL-STD-202, Method 204, 10 to 500 Hz, 0.06-inch total excursion on three mutually perpendicular planes. Shock and vibration tests apply to time delay breakers only and are performed with units carrying full rated current.
