IAL/CEL/LEL Series
Hydraulic Magnetic Circuit Protectors
INTRODUCTION
IAL/IUL/IEL/LEL magnetic circuit protectors provide low-cost
power switching, reliable circuit protection and accurate
circuit control for equipment in the international marketplace.
IAL models are for those applications where the unit’s inherent
attributes are desired, but compliance with the various
standards is not required.
IUL models have been tested and approved in accordance with
UL 1077 requirements for UL recognition.
IEL/LEL models are VDE approved to VDE 0660, part 101. They
meet IEC spacing requirements, mandatory for equipment
which must comply with IEC specifications 601 and 950, and
VDE specifications 0804 and 0805. In addition, the IEL models
are UL recognized to UL 1077 as supplementary protectors and
the LEL models are UL listed under the conditions of UL 489. Both
are CSA certified and CCC Approved. The IEL is CSA certified as
a supplementary protector per CSA C22.2–No. 235.
The CEL model has achieved two new enhancements, including
a single pole, 125 amp rating with TÜV approval, and a parallel
4-pole version with 400 amp rating.
Airpax™ IAL/CEL/LEL circuit protectors are available in a wide
variety of configurations, including series, series with auxiliary
switch, shunt and relay with choice of delays and ratings in DC
and/or 50/60Hz or 400Hz versions. Single or multi-pole versions
are available with a variety of pole arrangements to meet your
specifications. Please see the appropriate product specification
table for ratings and limitations.

MULTI-POLE CIRCUIT PROTECTORS
Multi-pole units are combined in an assembly with the trip
mechanisms internally coupled. A fault in any protected circuit
opens all poles simultaneously. Applications include use in
polyphase circuits, single-phase three-wire systems, or in two
or more related but electrically isolated circuits. A mix of
delays, ratings and configurations are offered. The auxiliary
switch is offered with either gold or silver contacts and is
available when a series construction pole is specified.
Two Pole Units
An assembly consisting of two single pole units, having their trip
mechanisms internally coupled, is available with either a single
toggle handle or with a handle per pole. Please see decision
one of the part number decision tables. Individual poles may
vary in ratings, delays and internal configurations. If the poles
are of series construction, an auxiliary switch may be included
in either or both poles, allowing you to mix SELV and hazardous
voltages.

Three Pole and Four Pole Units
The three pole structure consists of three single pole units
assembled with an internal mechanical interlock which
actuates all units simultaneously. The units are available
with either a single toggle handle or with a handle per pole.
Units with four pole construction operate with a minimum
of two center toggle handles or with a handle per pole.
Please see decision one of the part number decision tables.
Mixing of delays, ratings and configurations is available in
each individual pole. The auxiliary switch is offered in any
series trip pole.
Breaker poles are numbered consecutively when viewed
from the terminal side, with the ON position up, starting with
pole #1 on the left side and proceeding to the right.
