ABB EK4040KN Control and Automation Board - CE
Part Number: EK4040KN
Quick Summary
ABB EK4040KN control and automation board enables modular base/top enclosures for industrial automation. In practice, engineers grapple with compact layouts, mounting variability, and the need for scalable solutions that meet safety and regulatory demands. This kit aligns with IS2 Enclosures for Automation and carries CE conformity with RoHS and REACH declarations to streamline procurement and compliance. Designed for 400x400 mm footprints, it supports 1400 mm to 2200 mm height ranges and a 40 kg load, delivering predictable installation outcomes. Together with its kit mounting and pickled steel body, it reduces field customization time and total cost of ownership. This combination supports fast, reliable panel builds and easier future upgrades.

FAQs
The EK4040KN uses a base/top kit configuration designed for IS2 enclosure systems, offering a prefabricated 400x400 mm footprint. Installation is simplified by the kit’s integrated mounting rails and factory-finished surfaces, reducing field modification. For compatibility, ensure the enclosure supports a 394 mm net width and 394 mm net depth, with height options from 1400 to 2200 mm. This minimizes assembly time and improves alignment accuracy.
The EK4040KN supports up to 40 kg of equipment load. This capacity accommodates controllers, drives, power supplies, terminal blocks, and cable management hardware typical in mid-range control panels. By providing a sturdy pickled steel chassis with a robust base/top configuration, it helps prevent deformation under load and maintains alignment for reliable wiring and module placement.
The EK4040KN is CE compliant and carries RoHS and REACH declarations, with WEEE not in scope for this product. These certifications simplify procurement in regulated environments such as manufacturing and process industries. The presence of the CE Declaration of Conformity supports audit readiness, while RoHS/REACH compliance reduces risk from restricted substances.
Yes, the EK4040KN is suited for high-rise automation installations thanks to its adjustable height options. The reference height ranges from 1400 to 2200 mm, enabling engineers to match rack or cabinet stacks. The 400x400 footprint and 394 mm net width/depth support modular stacking while maintaining consistent mounting geometry across levels.
Using the EK4040KN reduces total cost of ownership by standardizing components, accelerating installation, and enabling scalable upgrades without rewiring. The kit’s base/top design minimizes field modifications, while its durable material and coatings extend service life in harsh environments. Regulatory compliance also lowers risk of non-conformity penalties and retrofit costs during audits.
