All variants share the same circuit breaker footprint and terminal layout; the columns above show where they differ. Selecting a different catalog number changes the electrical interface, not the mounting.
Where it sits in the control system
The 1SAM451000R1016 is the device-level element in an ABB circuit breaker installation. It receives the field signals and control supply listed above — Main Circuit 690 V AC — and switches or conditions the load within the 54 A ratings shown in the Specifications table. Wiring and protective devices are sized to those same numbers, not to a generic assumption.
Typical installations place it in distribution boards, motor protection circuits, panel feeders, where the unit is matched to the original catalog number and the enclosure provides DIN rail / panel support. Record the catalog number and revision from the nameplate of the installed unit before specifying a like-for-like spare.
Before you specify
-
Trip curve. Select the tripping characteristic (trip curve) for the load profile; a C curve suits standard distribution, B suits long cable runs.
-
Breaking capacity. Confirm the installation's prospective fault current does not exceed 100 kA; downstream coordination depends on it.
-
Poles. Match the pole count (3P) to the circuit; mixing 1P and 3P in the same board is a wiring error.
-
Mounting. Verify the DIN rail / panel arrangement fits the existing DIN rail or panel cutout.
Technical FAQ
Q.What supply does this device require?
It requires Main Circuit 690 V AC. Size the supply source to the same rating shown in the Specifications table.
Q.What are the key electrical ratings?
The confirmed ratings include 54 A and CE, UL, CSA, CCC marking. Cross-check them against the installed unit's nameplate.
Q.How is this device mounted?
It mounts by DIN rail / panel. Confirm the cutout or rail before ordering a like-for-like spare.
Q.What is the operating temperature range?
The confirmed operating range is 0...+55 °C (IEC 60068-2-1). Panels running beyond it need derated sizing.
Q.What replaces a unit that is no longer in production?
For a like-for-like spare, record the catalog number and revision from the nameplate; a current-production equivalent is identified by matching function and ratings.
