A9F94463 depth only 44.5mm, greatly reduced from EA9AN4C63 78.5mm.
Vorteile:
Fits slimmer distribution boards/cabinets
Spart Installationsraum, eases maintenance
Ideal for retrofit projects with limited space
2.3 Endurance & Zuverlässigkeit: Longer‑Term Stability
Electrical endurance from 10k → 15k operations; mechanical 20k → 25k.
A9 series uses higher‑grade materials and precision manufacturing for better long‑term stability.
Better vibration and impact resistance for harsh environments.
2.4 Accessory Expandability: Flexible Function Upgrades
EA9AN: Supports only basic auxiliary contacts and shunt trips.
A9F94463: Supports full Acti9 accessory range:
Multi‑function auxiliary / alarm contacts
Remote‑control shunt trips
Over/undervoltage protection modules
