35 to 150 Amp Precision, Ignition Protected Thermal Breakers
Ignition protected
Using a bimetal, snap acting disc as the sensing and actuating element, the large frame P Series thermal circuit breaker
provides trouble free over current protection for harsh environments.
The P Series is available in two configurations:
PDLA: Sealed construction, automatic reset
PDLM: Sealed construction, manual reset
Applications
Military vehicles and equipment where precise ultimate trip characteristics are required

Trip Curve
Approximate Time — Current Characteristics at 77°F (25°C)
Derating Curve
Approximate Effect of Ambient Temperature on Ultimate Trip
Performance characteristics are based on room temperature (77°F). Consult derating curve at left for ambient temperatures
significantly higher or lower than standard room temperature.
Example: At 77°F the device is calibrated to hold at 110% of rated current (1) and trip at 138% of rated current (2).
At 140°F, the same device will hold at approximately 92% of rated current (3), and trip at approximately 120% of rated current (4).
