Schneider Electric R9R51263 Resi9 2P 63 A 30 mA RCCB

R9R51263: Resi9 2P 63 A 30 mA type AC RCCB

The R9R51263 is a Schneider Electric Resi9 residual current circuit breaker (RCCB): two-pole, opens phase and neutral together, for a single-phase circuit. Its rated current is 63 A, its earth-leakage sensitivity is 30 mA with instantaneous tripping, and the protection class is type AC. It clips onto a DIN rail, occupies 4 modules of 9 mm (36 mm) and is rated 230 V AC at 50/60 Hz. Seven Star LLC supplies the R9R51263 in Oman and the GCC as an independent supplier based in Muscat.

The reference reads as R9R5, then 1 for 30 mA, then 2 for the pole count and 63 for the rated current in amperes. That is our reading of the pattern across the Resi9 RCCB references we looked at, not a published ordering table, so confirm the complete reference before you order.

Technical specifications of the R9R51263

Installing and testing the R9R51263

Isolate and prove dead, clip the R9R51263 onto the DIN rail, connect the conductors observing the neutral position and tighten to 3.5 N.m. After energising, operate the test button on the front. The device must trip immediately, and the toggle is then reset by hand. A device that does not trip on test should be replaced instead of reset.

Operate the test button at regular intervals in service and record the rating and sensitivity on the board schedule. When an RCCB trips for real, look for the leakage before closing it again, because a repeated trip normally points to wet equipment, a damaged cable or an earth fault.

The R9R51263 among Resi9 RCCBs

Pole count sets the width and the voltage, the current rating sets how much load the device can carry, and sensitivity sets the leakage level at which it trips. The table compares neighbouring Resi9 references.

Where the R9R51263 is used in Oman and the GCC

In the region this kind of 2P 63 A RCCB is typically specified for villa and apartment blocks, retail units and warehouses and mosques, schools and clinics, always with a miniature circuit breaker or fuse ahead of it. Heat, dust and coastal humidity age boards, so closed enclosures and regular test-button checks matter. For process plants and critical loads the residual current protection and sensitivity follow the project specification, and that takes precedence over general advice.

Durability and environment for the R9R51263

The datasheet lists 20000 mechanical and 10000 electrical cycles, IP20 protection, pollution degree 2, overvoltage category III and tropicalisation 2, with 95 % relative humidity at 55 °C. Operation is listed from -5 to 40 °C and storage from -40 to 80 °C.

The upper operating limit is 40 °C, lower than some other RCCBs, so in a hot Gulf plant room check the temperature inside the enclosure and not only the room air. Heat from neighbouring breakers and cabling can bring R9R51263 closer to its limit than expected.

Selection checklist for the R9R51263

• Supply: 230 V AC, 2 poles, matching a single-phase circuit.
• Current: load through the device up to 63 A, with upstream protection no higher.
• Sensitivity: 30 mA against the goal of protecting people, equipment or the installation from fire.
• Waveform: type AC against the loads on the circuit.
• Backup: a miniature circuit breaker or fuse upstream, since the RCCB does not trip on overcurrent.
• Space: 4 modules, 36 mm of DIN rail.

Size, terminals and mounting of the R9R51263

The body is 36 mm wide, 81 mm high and 73 mm deep, which is 4 modules of 9 mm on the rail. The datasheet lists an embedding depth of 44 mm and ON/OFF indication on the front, and the body weighs 180 g net. The neutral position is listed on the left, and the diagram on the housing should be followed.

The terminals are tunnel type, top or bottom, taking 1 to 35 mm² rigid and 1 to 25 mm² flexible conductors, including flexible with ferrule. Tighten to 3.5 N.m after stripping 15 mm of insulation. A contact position indicator or ON/OFF indication shows whether the poles are open, so a glance at the front of the this RCCB confirms its state.

Information to send with an RFQ for the R9R51263

• Exact reference R9R51263 and the quantity needed.
• Supply voltage, system type and earthing arrangement.
• Description of the loads, including drives or electronic equipment.
• Upstream protective device and its rating.
• Other poles, ratings or sensitivities needed in the same order.
• Delivery location and timeline.

Before ordering, check that the board enclosure, busbar arrangement and neighbouring devices leave enough room for heat to escape, since crowded boards in hot rooms run closer to their limits than the rated ambient suggests.

Keep a record of the installed ratings on the board schedule and note the supply voltage at commissioning, because later extensions and fault investigations depend on knowing exactly what protects each circuit.

Spare devices of the same rating, pole count and sensitivity are worth planning for sites that run continuously, since a like-for-like replacement keeps the original protection design intact after a trip or a fault.

If the board will be extended later, leave spare rail length and think about how added circuits change the leakage current seen by this device, which affects how close it runs to its trip threshold.
