TPS-ESB-01-12A 12A AC-Inrush Current Limiter

The TPS-ESB-01-12A is an advanced active inrush current limiter designed for 230VAC applications, providing reliable inrush current limiting for various electrical systems. This IC current limiter features an integrated bypass relay, eliminating the drawbacks of simple NTC solutions and ensuring efficient operation after startup. With a peak current limitation of 45A for 100-500ms, it effectively protects against high inrush currents in inductive and capacitive loads, transformers, and motor start scenarios. Mounted on DIN rail with screw terminals supporting AWG13-11 wires, it offers easy installation and robust performance in industrial environments. The TPS-ESB-01-12A helps reduce cable sections, prevents unintended fuse release, and allows for smaller, faster circuit breakers, making it an ideal solution for transformer inrush protection and motor start current limiting.
