Schneider Electric A9N26476 Acti9 MX shunt trip release

A9N26476: Acti9 MX shunt trip release, 110–415 V AC / 110–130 V DC

The A9N26476 is a Schneider Electric Acti9 MX shunt trip release, an 18 mm side-mounted module that trips a compatible Acti9 breaker remotely when its coil is energised. Its control voltage is 110–415 V AC 50/60 Hz and 110–130 V DC. Seven Star LLC supplies the A9N26476 in Oman and the GCC as an independent supplier based in Muscat.

This unit is an accessory, not a breaker: it only works when mounted on a compatible Acti9 device, and it makes remote opening possible for emergency stop circuits, fire-alarm shutdown, process interlocks and monitored feeders. This version has no auxiliary contact, so the breaker position must be reported by a separate accessory if it is needed.

Technical specifications of the A9N26476

Wiring, testing and maintenance of the A9N26476

Connect the control wires to the bottom terminals: the datasheet lists one rigid conductor of 0.5–2.5 mm², or two flexible 1.5 mm² conductors with or without ferrules, with 9 mm stripping and 1 N.m torque. Make sure the supply type matches the coil: an AC coil must not be driven from a DC rail, and the polarity convention of DC control circuits should be checked against the wiring diagram supplied with the product.

After commissioning, test the trip by applying the control voltage once and confirming that the breaker opens and the indicator shows; repeat at each annual maintenance round. A shunt trip that never operates gives no feedback until it is needed, so a periodic test is the only way to know it works. Keep the coil circuit fuse or breaker rated per the manufacturer’s data.

Where the A9N26476 is used in Oman and the GCC

Shunt trips are used in emergency stop and fire-alarm shutdown schemes of buildings and industrial plants, for remote isolation of feeders to pumps and chillers, and for load shedding on generator-backed boards. The plain MX version is the lower-cost choice where only a remote trip is needed. The temperature range of -25–50 °C suits indoor panels; on rooftop or plant-room boards in the Gulf the heat near the top of an enclosure can exceed that range, so mount the module away from heat sources.

Breaker compatibility of the A9N26476

The datasheet lists these Acti9 ranges as compatible: iDPN, C120, C40, C60H-DC, C60NA-DC, C60PV-DC, DPN Vigi, DT40, DT60, ID C40, IDc, ITG40, ID, SW60-DC. The C120 range is among them, which includes the A9N18346 and similar C120 breakers, but always check the exact breaker reference and its mounting side before you order. The module is fixed-mounted, takes the comb busbar at the top and mounts on the side of the breaker so that the pair occupies the breaker width plus 18 mm of rail.

Compatibility lists in a datasheet name the breaker families, not every pole count or rating, so confirm with the breaker datasheet that the shunt trip can be added on the chosen frame.

Selection checklist and RFQ details for the A9N26476

Check these before ordering.

• Control voltage: 110–415 V AC 50/60 Hz and 110–130 V DC must match the signal supply.
• Auxiliary contact: not needed.
• Breaker: the exact reference must be listed as compatible.
• Mounting: one 18 mm slot to the side of the breaker.
• Signal source: relay, PLC output, push button or fire panel.

With your enquiry, send:

• Part number A9N26476 and quantity.

• Control supply type and voltage.
• Delivery location and date.

What the A9N26476 does inside a breaker assembly

A shunt trip is a coil that sits beside a circuit breaker and, when energised by a command signal, releases the breaker mechanism. It does not protect the circuit by itself and it does not close the breaker again; the breaker handle must be reset manually afterwards. For this unit the coil is specified for 110–415 V AC 50/60 Hz and 110–130 V DC, so it follows the supply of the control circuit that triggers it. The wide 110–415 V AC and 110–130 V DC range lets the same coil be used on 230 V, 400 V and 110 V DC control supplies, which simplifies stock keeping.

With no signal contact, the module is the simplest option for a pure remote trip.
