Residual current circuit breaker 6kA PF6-40/4/01 286509

Residual Current Device (RCD) 6kA provides reliable protection for electrical installations, designed for both professional and home use. The four-pole model PF6-40/4/01 with a rated current of 40A and a differential current of 0.1A (100mA) effectively protects against electric shock and damage resulting from overloads and short circuits.

Protection and Functionality

This type AC RCD is characterized by a high surge current resistance – up to 0.25kA, which translates to a longer lifespan and stable operation in difficult conditions. Short-circuit strength at 6kA guarantees that the device can handle sudden current surges, protecting the circuit from serious failures. The locking mechanism prevents accidental disconnection of the switch, increasing safety. Mounting is done on a standard DIN rail, which simplifies installation and integration with existing electrical infrastructure.

Installation and User Comfort

The design of the switch allows for the connection of multi-strand wires with a cross-section from 1.5 to 16 mm² and solid wires from 1.5 to 35 mm², providing great flexibility during installation. The width of the device, 4 modules, allows for efficient use of space in the distribution board. Additionally, the neutral conductor (N) can be routed on both sides, making connection and cable organization easier. Remember to test the switch regularly (recommended every 6 months) to ensure its proper operation and full protection.

Design Features and Parameters

The switch is made of high-quality materials, ensuring its durability and reliability. Adapted to operate at temperatures from -25°C to 60°C and with a protection degree of IP20, it can be used in various indoor environments. The rated insulation voltage Ui is 440V and the rated impulse withstand voltage Uimp is 4kV. The device meets the required safety standards and has Eaton quality certificates. The housing color close to RAL 7035 provides an aesthetic appearance and easy identification in the distribution board.
