CARLING TECHNOLOGIES CX-Series circuit breaker provides a patent-pending arc quenching configuration that allows the device to safely handle high amperage and high dc voltage applications in a compact package. By using a patent pending magnetic flux boosting terminal configuration a strong magnetic field is created, thus motivating the arc into an enhanced arc chamber improving the breaker’s overall performance and reliability. The permanent magnets located at the entrance of the arc chamber combined with the upper and lower arc runner increase the magnetic blow out force and aid in motivating the arc off of the contacts and into the arc chamber.
