ABB - Electrification SPST048R - The shunt trip accessory is an electronic module which provides remote control capability to open the circuit breaker. When activated, the shunt trip sends a signal to the trip unit to open the breaker. This allows the trip unit to record, display, and communicate (in MicroVersaTrip PM trip units) that the opening event was initiated by the shunt trip device. The shunt trip is continuously rated and requires no cut-off switch. When energized, the shunt trip supplies +24 Vdc power to the trip unit to power the display. 048R Amps 600 A

Overview

The ABB SPST048R Shunt Trip Accessory (SKU: SPST048R) is an electronic module engineered to provide remote tripping capabilities for ABB circuit breakers, specifically designed for applications requiring precise control and operational flexibility. This accessory enables the immediate and reliable opening of a circuit breaker when activated by an external signal, making it an indispensable component for emergency shutdown sequences, remote operational management, and integration into sophisticated protection and automation systems. Engineered for seamless compatibility, the SPST048R is designed to work with ABB's MicroVersaTrip PM trip units. This integration ensures that the trip unit accurately records, displays, and communicates opening events initiated by the shunt trip device. This detailed event logging is crucial for system diagnostics, performance analysis, and compliance reporting in industrial environments. The SPST048R is continuously rated for 600 Amps (048R Amps) and operates with a +24 Vdc power supply. When energized, it supplies this +24 Vdc power to the trip unit, ensuring the trip unit's display remains powered and visible even during remote tripping events. The accessory requires no cut-off switch, simplifying installation and maintenance procedures. Its modular design allows for quick, error-free installation, typically sliding into place and being mechanically keyed to its compartment for correct connection without the need for special tools or disassembly of the switch. This shunt trip accessory is UL Listed for both factory and field installation, underscoring its suitability for a broad spectrum of industrial applications where precise remote circuit breaker control is paramount. The SPST048R enhances operational safety and efficiency by providing a reliable method for remote circuit interruption.
