Interruptor de protección de motor EATON PKZM0-0.25, 0,25A, 3 polos, botón giratorio, 0,06kW a 400V 072731

In industrial control panels and motor control centers, protecting small three-phase motors from overload and short-circuit is critical. The EATON PKZM0-0.25 motor protection circuit breaker is engineered for exactly that task. With a rated operational current of 0.25 A and an adjustable overload release from 0.16 to 0.25 A, it safeguards motors up to 0.06 kW at 400 V AC-3. The rotary knob actuation ensures clear ON/OFF indication and easy manual operation, while screw terminals provide secure wiring. This 3-pole device is suitable for DIN rail or screw mounting and complies with IEC/EN 60947-4-1.
