Intelligent Modular Unit

Definition

A modular unit is a mechanical and electrical assembly containing one or more products to perform a function in a switchboard (incoming protection, motor command, and control).

The circuit breaker with its internal communicating components ( MicroLogic control unit or MicroLogic trip unit) and external ULP modules (IO module) connected to one communication interface is called an Intelligent Modular Unit (IMU).

An IMU is composed around a circuit breaker from the following ranges:

  • MasterPacT MTZ circuit breakers

  • MasterPacT NT/NW circuit breakers

  • ComPacT NS 1600b-3200 circuit breakers

  • ComPacT NS 630b-1600 circuit breakers

  • PowerPacT P- and R- frame circuit breakers

  • ComPacT NSX circuit breakers

  • PowerPacT H-,J-, and L- frame circuit breakers

ULP Modules Per Circuit Breaker Range

The following table lists the compatible ULP modules for each range of circuit breakers.
