| LARGE FRAME PD SERIES (PDLA, PDLM)
35 TO 150 AMP PRECISION THERMAL CIRCUIT BREAKER
SPECIFICATIONS
The KLIXON® PDL series thermal breakers are designed to meet the harshest environmental requirements. The PDL series breakers are weatherproof for
protection against moisture, dust, grease, fuel vapors, and other harsh environments. The PDL series of breakers are designed to interrupt short circuits
or overloads and combine trip-free protection with fast response time. The PDL series of breakers can be used in commercial and military vehicles and
equipment where more precise ultimate trip characteristics are required.
