ABB 6961.130 Consumer Unit - Externally Mounted - IP20

Externally mounted enclosure design enables quick integration into existing control panels without disassembling fixed internals. The approach reduces wiring length and minimizes panel downtime, delivering faster commissioning and easier field upgrades. This makes it ideal for installer teams handling Hafonorm distributor assemblies and RCCB configurations in mid-sized production lines. Rated at 40 A and featuring a 4P main switch, the unit supports typical machine loads while preserving headroom for future expansion. The robust main switch, combined with the RCCB option set (1 x 30 mA RCD, 0 x 300 mA), ensures reliable protection for personnel and equipment in harsh industrial environments. IP20 protection and synthetic enclosure materials provide a balance of safety, durability, and cost efficiency. The housing is plastic, designed to survive factory conditions while keeping weight under 1 kg, which simplifies installation and reduces shipping costs. RoHS and REACH declarations underpin compliance in regulated markets, minimizing procurement risk and facilitating cross-border sourcing. The EU declaration of conformity and WEEE categorization further support legal handling, repair, and end-of-life considerations. Compact dimensions (160 mm width, 140 mm height, 230 mm depth) and a net weight of 0.925 kg fit tight control-room layouts and compact machinery, helping to reduce enclosure clutter. The integrated design aligns with Hafonorm distributor assemblies and RCDs, while the included terminal block simplifies wiring and decreases field termination time. Installation resources, including APIM0709-123NL/120824 documentation, data sheets, and common installation guides, streamline onboarding for technicians. In practice, the combination of externally mounted capability, predictable performance, and broad certification support translates into measurable productivity gains and lower lifecycle costs.
