The ABB MS116-1.6 manual motor starter is a compact motor protection circuit breaker engineered for reliable switching and protection of small three-phase and single-phase motors. At just 45 mm wide and rated up to 0.55 kW (AC-3 at 400 V), it helps panel builders save space while ensuring dependable protection for pumps, fans, conveyors, and general-purpose drives.

With an adjustable thermal setting range of 1.0 to 1.6 A and trip class 10A, the unit combines fast fault clearing with stable overload protection. It delivers short-circuit performance up to 50 kA (Ics) and up to 100 kA (Icu), 6 kV impulse withstand, a built-in disconnect function, temperature compensation, a trip-free mechanism, and a rotary handle with clear ON/OFF indication. IP20 housing, screw terminals, TH35-15 DIN-rail mounting, and compliance with IEC/EN 60947-1 streamline installation and standard conformity across industrial control panels.

Designed for OEMs, system integrators, and maintenance teams, the MS116-1.6 reduces components compared with fuse-based solutions and simplifies coordination with contactors and accessories to speed commissioning and maintain uptime; to support long-term reliability in the field, it is supplied with a 1-year warranty for added confidence.
