Overcurrent circuit breaker, 6kA BKN series 1P 40A B characteristic BKN 1P B40A

Reliable protection for your electrical installation

The BKN 1P 40A overcurrent circuit breaker is a key element ensuring safety in every electrical installation. Designed by the renowned manufacturer LS ELECTRIC, this single-pole circuit breaker with B characteristic effectively protects circuits against overload and short circuit. Its compact size and easy mounting on a 35mm DIN rail make it ideal for both professional installers and end users.

Functionality and application

The BKN 1P B40A circuit breaker is designed to protect circuits with a rated current of up to 40A. The B characteristic means that the circuit breaker reacts quickly to current increase, but at the same time allows for short-term overloads that may occur during the start-up of devices with a motor (e.g. refrigerators, pumps). This minimizes the risk of unnecessary circuit tripping. It can be used to protect lighting, socket outlets and other electrical devices with moderate power consumption.

Key features and benefits

• High protection efficiency: Provides reliable protection against the effects of overloads and short circuits, protecting devices and the electrical installation from damage.
• B characteristic: Ideal for circuits with devices with short-term current draws, minimizing the risk of false tripping.
• Compact dimensions: Allows easy installation even in tight distribution boards (width 17.8mm per pole).
• Easy installation: Mounting on a standard 35mm DIN rail is quick and intuitive.
• Durable construction: Made of high-quality materials guarantees long life and reliable operation.
• Compliance with standards: Meets the requirements of IEC60947-2 standards, confirming its safety and quality.
• Terminal block: Allows connection of wires with a cross-section of up to 25mm², ensuring a solid electrical connection.
• High breaking capacity: Breaking capacity of 6kA ensures effective circuit interruption in the event of a short circuit.

This circuit breaker is an investment in the safety of your electrical installation and peace of mind. Solid workmanship and compliance with applicable standards guarantee reliable operation for years to come.
