Residual current circuit breaker 6kA PF6-40/4/03-A 112935

Residual Current Device – Protection and Safety of Installation

This four-pole residual current device from Eaton's PF6 series is a key element ensuring safety in every electrical installation. Designed to protect against electric shock and prevent fires caused by short circuits, it provides a reliable barrier against potential hazards. Its function is to quickly disconnect the circuit in the event of a leakage current to ground, minimizing risk to people and property.

Characteristics and Application

The PF6-40/4/03-A circuit breaker with a rated current of 40A and a sensitivity of 0.3A (type A) is perfect for protecting lighting circuits, socket outlets and electrical appliances in residential, commercial and industrial buildings. Designed to operate at 400V and 50Hz, it ensures stable operation under standard network conditions. DIN rail construction simplifies installation and integration with existing distribution boards.

Good to know:

Type A residual current devices are particularly effective in detecting alternating current leakage, making them an ideal choice for protecting against hazards associated with electronic devices and those sensitive to interference.

Key Features and Benefits

• High short-circuit resistance: Short-circuit strength at 6kA guarantees reliable operation even in the event of strong overvoltages.
• Wide range of wire cross-sections: The ability to connect stranded wires with a cross-section of 1.5 mm² to 16 mm² and solid wires from 1.5 mm² to 35 mm² provides flexibility when selecting wires matched to the specific load.
• Locking: Integrated locking prevents accidental disconnection of the circuit breaker, increasing safety.
