The SUNTREE SM8 HPV Series is designed for DC circuits with operating voltages of up to 1500V DC. The SM8-250HPV supports 1250V and 1500V DC applications, while the SM8-630HPV is designed for 1500V DC systems.
The SM8 HPV Series covers rated currents from 100A to 630A. The SM8-250HPV is available in 100A, 125A, 160A, 200A, 225A, and 250A ratings, while the SM8-630HPV is available in 400A, 500A, and 630A.
The main differences are their frame size, pole configuration, and current capacity. The SM8-250HPV is a 3-pole MCCB with a 250A frame, while the SM8-630HPV is a 4-pole MCCB with a 630A frame for higher-current DC applications.
The breaking capacity depends on the model and operating voltage. The SM8-250HPV has an Icu and Ics of 20kA at 1250V DC and 15kA at 1500V DC. The SM8-630HPV provides an Icu and Ics of up to 30kA at 1500V DC. What voltage is the SUNTREE SM8 HPV DC MCCB suitable for?
