Schneider Electric's LV426815 is an undervoltage release designed for spring-actuated mechanisms within electrical control systems. This component operates at a nominal voltage of 250 V DC, providing essential protection against undervoltage conditions. It is commonly integrated into circuit breakers and motor starters to prevent damage to equipment and ensure safe operation when power supply dips below a critical threshold.

Technical details

• Type: Undervoltage Release (UV R)
• Actuation: Spring
• Voltage Rating: 250 V DC
• Series: MN (likely refers to a specific Schneider Electric breaker or contactor series, buyer should verify compatibility)
• Function: Triggers tripping mechanism upon loss or significant reduction of DC supply voltage.
• Application: Designed for integration into compatible Schneider Electric circuit protection devices.
• Operating Principle: Utilizes an electromagnet that de-energizes when DC voltage drops, releasing a spring-loaded mechanism to open contacts.

Applications & compatibility

The LV426815 undervoltage release is suitable for DC power distribution and control applications where reliable protection against voltage sags is paramount. It finds use in industrial control panels, DC motor control circuits, and backup power systems across various sectors including manufacturing, utilities, and transportation.
