Overcurrent circuit breaker, 6kA BKN series 3P 6A characteristic C BKN 3P C6A

Electrical installation protection with BKN 3P C6A circuit breaker

This three-pole circuit breaker from the BKN series, with a rated current of 6A and C characteristic, provides reliable protection for your electrical installation. Designed by LS Electric, it protects circuits against the effects of overloads and short circuits, ensuring safe operation and minimizing the risk of failure. It is a key element in any electrical system, both in residential and commercial buildings.

Characteristics and application

The BKN 3P C6A circuit breaker is designed for mounting on a DIN rail and is used in circuits with a voltage of 230/400V AC. The C characteristic means that the circuit breaker reacts moderately quickly to current increases, making it an ideal choice for protecting circuits with devices that generate short-term current surges – such as motors or transformers. This ensures stable operation of the installation without unnecessary tripping under normal load. This makes it a suitable solution for a wide range of applications, from lighting to electrical outlets.

Key features and benefits

• High short-circuit resistance: The circuit breaker can withstand short-circuit currents up to 6kA, guaranteeing effective protection in the event of a failure.
• Universal mounting: DIN rail mounting simplifies and speeds up installation, and also allows for easy replacement if necessary.
• Trip indicator: The built-in indicator allows for quick identification of the circuit breaker status – whether it has tripped and needs to be reset. This facilitates troubleshooting and reduces repair time.
• Wide operating temperature range: The ability to operate in a temperature range from -30°C to +50°C makes the circuit breaker suitable for use in various environmental conditions.
• Safety confirmed by standards: Compliance with IEC/EN 60898-1 ensures a high level of safety and reliability of the device.
• Possibility of connecting comb busbars: Enables easy connection with other protective devices.
• Wire cross-section up to 25mm²: Allows connection of wires of different thicknesses, adapting to the needs of the installation.

Remember, the circuit breaker should be installed by a qualified electrician after disconnecting the power!
