Detailed content

Product Description:
The AEG AS-BDAP-216 is a 16A-rated miniature circuit breaker equipped with an integrated auxiliary contact (AP) for remote signaling. It is used in applications where circuit status (ON/OFF/TRIP) must be transmitted to a control system, PLC, or building management system (BMS).

Technical Specifications:

  • Rated Current (In): 16A
  • Rated Voltage (Ue): 230/400V AC (1P: 230V; 2P: 400V)
  • Pole Configuration: 1P or 2P (model-dependent)
  • Trip Curve: Type C (5–10× In)
  • Rated Short-Circuit Breaking Capacity (Icu)6 kA at 230V / 10 kA at 400V
  • Auxiliary Contact Rating1CO (1 Changeover), 10A at 250V AC / 6A at 30V DC
  • Auxiliary Contact Operation: Mirrors main contact state (NO closes when MCB is ON; NC closes when MCB is OFF or tripped)
  • Mechanical Life: 20,000 operations
  • Electrical Life: 10,000 operations at rated load
  • Standards Compliance: IEC 60898-1, EN 60898-1, IEC 60947-2
  • Installation: DIN 35mm rail (EN 60715 TH35)

Material Composition:

  • Housing: Polyamide 6.6 (PA66) — UL94 V-0, halogen-free
  • Contacts: Silver alloy (AgSnO2) — main and auxiliary
  • Terminal: Tin-plated copper alloy, screw terminal (1–25mm²)

Structural Features:

  • Width: 18mm (1P) / 36mm (2P)
  • Height: 85mm
  • Depth: 71mm
  • Auxiliary contact module clipped onto MCB body — quick snap-on installation
  • Terminal indicator windows for wiring verification

Advantages:

  • Integrated auxiliary contact eliminates separate wiring for status feedback
  • Type C curve suitable for general-purpose and light motor circuits
  • 16A rating with 6kA/10kA breaking capacity
  • Snap-on auxiliary module — retrofit-compatible with AEG AS-BDAP base breakers

Applicable Industry:

  • Building automation (BMS integration)
  • Industrial control panels requiring breaker status feedback
  • Fire alarm system interface circuits
  • Motor starter circuits with remote monitoring
  • Data center power distribution
