Eaton xEffect FAZ Miniature Circuit Breaker, 3-Pole, 40A, Type C, 415V AC, 96V DC, 10 kA Breaking Capacity 278979 FAZ-C40/3N

Eaton 278979 FAZ-C40/3N Miniature Circuit Breaker is a 3-pole device offering 40A current rating and type C tripping characteristics designed for industrial and commercial electrical protection systems. Operating at 415V AC and 96V DC, it provides thermal and electromagnetic release for precise fault interruption.

This FAZ series MCB belongs to Eaton's xEffect range known for its current limiting design which reduces let-through energy and overload currents, protecting circuits and sensitive equipment. The device features a trip-free toggle switch which cannot be held in the ON position, enhancing user safety and preventing accidental bypassing of protection.

Designed for DIN rail mounting with screw terminals, the compact MCB width of 17.5 mm per pole results in 52.5 mm total width for the 3-pole configuration, optimizing panel space usage. The FAZ C type model offers six levels of short circuit protection suitable for a wide range of applications including industrial automation, manufacturing, HVAC systems and electrical distribution.

Additional safety is ensured with an IP40 rating providing finger protection and a breaking capacity of 10kA meeting applicable IEC 60947-2 standards. The FAZ series also supports a variety of accessories such as auxiliaries and tripping modules to extend functionality.

Features thermal-magnetic overcurrent protection ensuring fast reaction to faults. Rated for 415V AC and 96V DC operation suitable for various industrial applications. Breaking capacity of 10kA provides high short-circuit interruption capability.

Compact DIN rail mounting and easy installation in control panels. Toggle switch provides clear indication of contact position and reset function. IP40 rating offers protection against solid objects enhancing safety. Module width of 52.5 mm for the 3-pole device saves panel space.

Equipped with screw terminal type for secure electrical connections.
