Omron Circuit Breakers

OMRON Breakers & DIN Modular Devices – Circuit Protection Modules for Control Panels

In control panels, machine-bays and infrastructural installations the correct selection of protective gear is critical—not only for safety but also for serviceability, lifecycle cost and system reliability. OMRON’s breakers & DIN-modular devices portfolio (circuit-protection modules, DIN-rail breakers, modular protection gear, protection devices) is engineered for robust switch-gear, precise protection, modular mounting (35 mm DIN-rail) and logistic efficiency.

From a procurement and specifier viewpoint: key parameters include rated current (A), breaking capacity (kA), mounting type (DIN rail 35 mm vs screw), auxiliary contacts/blocks, coordination with upstream protection, and series compatibility. Choosing OMRON protection gear ensures fewer failures, simplified spares planning and consistent installation methods.

OMRON Circuit Protection Modules

The OMRON “J7MN” motor-protection circuit breaker (MPCB) is a good example: rated from 0.10-100 A, with breaking capacity up to 50–100 kA depending on variant, and designed for DIN-rail mounting. 
Procurement tip: verify the motor load, select the correct setting range (e.g., 9–13 A, 22–32 A) and ensure compatibility with auxiliary contacts and DIN-rail busbars in your panel.

OMRON DIN-Rail Breakers & Modular Protection Gear

Beyond motor protection, OMRON offers DIN-rail mount breakers and electronic circuit breakers such as the S8V-CP series for DC circuits: multi-channel, adjustable 2–10 A output, compact design for panels.
Procurement tip: for panel feeders choose the correct rail-mount device (35 mm) & confirm voltage/class (AC vs DC), number of outputs/channels, auxiliary signalling, and spare-variant compatibility.

OMRON Specification Checklist for Procurement Teams

Before placing a bulk order of OMRON breakers and DIN-modular protection devices, make sure you have defined:

  • Rated current & setting range: e.g., 22–32 A for the J7MN series
  • Short-circuit breaking capacity (Icu/Ics): e.g., up to 100 kA at 400 V for J7MN.
  • Mounting type & footprint: DIN-rail 35 mm (EN 50022) vs screw-mount
  • Auxiliary contacts/release options: ensure block compatibility.
  • Series & spares continuity: lock part numbers within one family to simplify inventory, avoid mixing brands.
  • Coordination with upstream protection: ensure the breaker protects correctly in the overall scheme.
    Skipping any of these items may lead to mismatched modules, unexpected downtime or inflated maintenance cost

OMRON Practical Application Scenarios & Cost Metrics

  • In a machine-panel build, specifying OMRON J7MN MPCBs with correct setting range avoids failed starters from overload and reduces replacement cost/year.
  • In a switchgear refurbishment, opting for OMRON S8V-CP electronic modules for DC branch protection reduces ripple damage, increases safety and shortens panel width (modular).
  • In a multi-panel installation across a large site, standardising on one OMRON breaker family reduces spare-parts SKUs, training time for technicians and logistics complexity.

Why Standardising on OMRON Breakers & Protection Devices Matters

When you standardise all protection gear on one brand — OMRON — you gain:

  • Fewer SKU numbers and simplified spares inventory.
  • Consistent mounting / mechanical interface / DIN-rail layout across panels.
  • Uniform documentation (Datasheets, CAD dimensions, installation instructions) and streamlined training of panel builders/maintenance teams.
  • Better procurement leverage through volume-ordering and fewer suppliers.
    Large installations with dozens or hundreds of panels benefit because protection devices represent a large portion of line-items; brand uniformity simplifies logistics, reduces errors and supports maintenance efficiency.
