5. Instalace a nastavení
The DIHOOL DHM1B-2P-160A-3 circuit breaker is designed for screw-in panel installation. Ensure the installation location is dry, well-ventilated, and protected from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
5.1 Připojení kabelů:
- Příprava: Before making any connections, ensure all power sources are disconnected and verified to be off.
- Montáž: Securely mount the circuit breaker to a panel using appropriate screws.
- Měřič drátu: The terminals accept wire gauges from 16-70mm² (6 AWG - 2/0 AWG). Use appropriate wire sizes for the 160A current rating to prevent overheating.
- Spojení: Connect the DC positive (+) and negative (-) cables to the corresponding terminals on the circuit breaker. Ensure connections are tight and secure. The circuit breaker supports "No Polarity" for DC 12V-240V applications, meaning input and output terminals can be connected without strict positive/negative orientation for the breaker itself, but the overall system polarity must be maintained.
- Ověření: Před obnovením napájení dvakrát zkontrolujte správnost a těsnost všech připojení.

6. Návod k obsluze
The circuit breaker features a simple ON/OFF toggle switch and a TEST button for verifying functionality.
6.1 Switching ON/OFF:
- To switch the circuit breaker ON, push the handle UP.
- To switch the circuit breaker VYPNUTO, push the handle DOWN.
- Důležitá poznámka: If the circuit breaker has tripped (due to overload or short circuit), the handle will be in an intermediate "Trip OFF" state. To reset, first push the handle fully DOWN to the OFF position, then push it UP to the ON position.
6.2 Using the TEST Button:
- The red "TEST" button is located on the front of the circuit breaker.
- To test the tripping mechanism, press the red "TEST" button. The circuit breaker should immediately trip to the "Trip OFF" state, interrupting the circuit.
- After testing, reset the circuit breaker by pushing the handle fully DOWN, then UP to the ON position.
- Regular testing (e.g., monthly) is recommended to ensure proper operation.

7. Údržba
The DIHOOL DHM1B-2P-160A-3 DC Main Circuit Breaker requires minimal maintenance. However, periodic checks are recommended to ensure continued safe and reliable operation.
- Vizuální kontrola: Pravidelně kontrolujte jistič, zda nevykazuje známky fyzického poškození, změny barvy nebo uvolněných spojů.
- Těsnost svorek: Periodically check that all terminal connections are tight. Loose connections can lead to overheating and poor performance.
- Čištění: If necessary, gently clean the exterior of the circuit breaker with a dry, soft cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
- Test funkčnosti: Perform the TEST button procedure (Section 6.2) periodically to confirm the tripping mechanism is functional.
