Product details

The A9Y85740: The 300 mA sensitivity is the trip threshold for earth leakage. This is not a 30 mA personal-protection device — it is sized for equipment protection or fire prevention on circuits where nuisance tripping from normal leakage (long cable runs, industrial loads) would shut down production. The Type A-SI (Super Immunised) designation means it handles pulsed DC fault currents (rectifier-fed loads) and resists unwanted tripping from high-frequency leakage or transient surges common on industrial lines. Voltage-independent tripping means the RCD operates on the residual current itself, not on the line voltage — it will still trip if the neutral is lost upstream. Rated insulation voltage is 440 V AC, and the operational voltage is 400 V AC — standard for a 3-phase + N distribution board in a 400/230 V system. For a distribution board that sees infrequent manual operation, this is a long service life.

Neutral is on the left. The device is an add-on RCD — it screws directly to the outgoing side of a compatible Acti9 MCB (the Vigi iC40 mates with the iC40 range of miniature circuit breakers). Tunnel-type terminals accept 1 to 16 mm² rigid or 1 to 10 mm² flexible cable; strip length 14 mm, tightening torque 2 N.m. The IP20 body is standard for enclosed distribution boards; the modular enclosure achieves IP40 when installed in a panel.

Frequently asked questions

What is the A9Y85740 used for?

It is an add-on residual current device (RCD) for 3P+N circuits, rated 40 A and 300 mA sensitivity, Type A-SI. It installs downstream of a compatible Acti9 MCB to provide earth-leakage protection on outgoing distribution circuits in industrial and commercial panels.

Where can I buy the A9Y85740 and get a price?

The A9Y85740 is sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution channels. Current pricing and availability are confirmed at the time of quote — submit an RFQ for a firm commercial offer.

What compliance documentation does the A9Y85740 carry?

It is certified to EN/IEC 61009-2-1 and carries the OVE quality label. The rated insulation voltage is 440 V AC, impulse withstand voltage 4 kV, and pollution degree 3 per the same standard.

What is the closest alternative to the A9Y85740 in the Acti9 range?

The A9Y85740 is the 40 A, 300 mA, Type A-SI, 3P+N variant of the Vigi iC40 add-on RCD. Other sensitivity or pole-configuration variants exist in the same Vigi iC40 family (e.g. 30 mA, 2P), but the 300 mA Type A-SI 3P+N is a specific combination for equipment protection on three-phase industrial circuits. No pin-compatible drop-in with different ratings is a direct substitute — match the sensitivity, type, and pole count to the circuit requirements.
