Product details

Schneider Electric A9Q16240 is an add-on residual current device from the Acti9 Vigi iC60 range, designed to clip onto the outgoing side of an iC60 MCB. Two-pole, 40 A rated current, 500 mA sensitivity, Type AC earth leakage protection, instantaneous trip. Voltage-independent tripping means it operates without needing a separate power supply — it pulls its trip energy from the fault current itself.

Strip length 14 mm, torque to 3.5 N·m. IP20 on the device body; IP40 inside a modular enclosure. Comb busbar compatible from the bottom.

Compliant with EN/IEC 61009-1 and EN/IEC 61009-2-1. Rated impulse withstand voltage 6 kV (Uimp), insulation voltage 500 V AC (Ui). 8/20 µs impulse current withstand of 250 A. Storage temperature range -40 to 85 °C; operating range -5 to 60 °C. Local trip indicator on the front face for quick fault identification.
