For the 200-240 V units the inrush current is 120 A for up to 1 second during the refrigeration start period. For the 380 / 400 V units it is 60 A. Circuit breakers,
whether thermal or magnetic actuated, must have a delay type applicable for the start of motors.
2
Use a 25 A or 32 A Trip Char. C circuit breaker (D or K are also applicable).
3
For 380 / 400 V, 3-phase (unbalanced load, no neutral used) use a 16 A Trip Char. C circuit breaker (D or K are also applicable).
