Quick WCB 60A DC Hydraulic Magnetic Circuit Breaker

(Manufacturer Code: FDWCB0600000A00)

The hydraulic magnetic circuit breaker Quick WCB 60A is a high-precision magnetic thermal protection device, designed for use in direct current (DC). systems. Thanks to the “slow burn” technology (delayed trip), it can absorb temporary inrush peaks typical of electric motors without interrupting the circuit, while ensuring immediate and safe interruption in case of real overload or short circuit.

Fields of Application

The 60A rating makes it an extremely versatile component for managing medium power loads in the marine sector. It is suitable for:

• Motor Protection: Ideal for anchor windlasses (typically between 700W and 1000W depending on voltage), electric winches, and small hoists.

• Secondary Distribution: Protection of power lines for zone electrical panels or onboard service subgroups.

• Maintenance and Refit: Original OEM replacement for Quick electrical panels, ensuring total electrical and aesthetic compatibility with the existing system.

Validated Technical Specifications

• Rated Current: 60 Amperes

• Max Operating Voltage: 80 Vdc (Direct Current)

• Operating Temperature: from -40°C to +85°C

• Technology: Magneto-hydraulic with delayed trip curve

• Reset System: Manual via snap lever (positionable ON/OFF)

• Design: Glossy scratch-resistant front panel with minimal black frame.

Dimensional Data for Recessed Installation

(Standardized design Quick WCB series)

• Front Plate Dimensions: 74.8 mm (Height) x 49.8 mm (Width)

• Recessed Depth: 67 mm

• Lever Projection: 30.4 mm

Installation and Safety Guidelines

For proper integration into the onboard system, follow the technical mounting instructions:

• Positioning: The switch must be installed in series on the positive pole (+) of the relevant line.

• Wiring and Sections: For a 60A capacity, it is essential to use cables of adequate section (minimum 16mm² or larger depending on line length) to minimize voltage drops.

• Connections: Secure ring terminals with a firm tightening on the rear terminals. Unstable contacts can generate excessive heat and compromise the effectiveness of the protection.

• Environmental Protection: Although the front panel is resistant, the back of the device must be installed in a compartment protected from water infiltration and condensation.

 Purchase Advice: If you are replacing a faulty component, check that the code on the side of your current switch is FDWCB0600000A00. The WCB series maintains the same dimensions for different power ratings; verifying the “60A” marking is essential to avoid undersizing or oversizing the line protection.
