700 1 . Curve accuracy applies from –20°C to +55°C ambient . For possible continuous ampere derating for
Maximum Total ambient above 40°C, referto WEG. Temperatures above +85°C cause an over-temperature protection

Clearing Time trip .

400 2 . Application frequency is 50/60 Hz .

300 3 . There is a memory effect that can act to shorten the long delay . If the breaker trips on a long delay
overload and is quickly reset, the memory capacitor will still have charge, and a subsequent overload
will cause the breaker to trip in a shorter time than normal . The amount of time delay reduction is
200
inverse to the amount of time that has elapsed since the previous overload . Approximately five
minutes is required between overloads to completely reset memory .
