The four-pole design provides simultaneous protection for all conductors, ensuring coordinated isolation of line and load paths and reducing the risk of miscoordination in control circuits. This translates to improved reliability and faster fault isolation in busy automation environments. The 6 A nominal rating paired with a 15 kAIC withstand capability supports protection of small to medium loads while absorbing high fault currents, protecting downstream devices from damage and lowering repair costs. A very low instantaneous setting tightens protection for sensitive loads, improving selectivity and reducing nuisance trips that can halt production. Standard terminals enable straightforward wiring and compatibility with existing control panels, cutting installation time and minimizing downtime during retrofits. Certifications to UL 1077, CSA, and IEC 60947-2 validate regulatory compliance and safety across industrial facilities, while the 1-year warranty provides assurance against manufacturing defects and supports long-term maintenance planning.

FAQs
Install the FAZ-Z6/4 by locating a suitable space in the control panel, ensuring clearance for four conductors, and using the standard terminals for input and output. The four-pole design provides simultaneous protection for all conductors, with a compact 3x3x3 inch footprint that fits common enclosures. Follow general wiring practices and refer to the Eaton specification sheet for torque and routing.
Key specs include a 6 A nominal rating and 15 kAIC short-circuit current rating, four poles, and a trip type described as 2-3X /n. Dimensions are 3 in length, width, and height, with a weight of 1 lb. It carries UL 1077, CSA Std. C22.2 No.235, and IEC 60947-2 certifications, supporting robust industrial-grade protection.
Yes. The FAZ-Z6/4 features a very low instantaneous setting to deliver tighter protection for loads more sensitive to overcurrents, improving selectivity in automation circuits. Its four-pole configuration enables concurrent protection of control lines, inputs, and auxiliary circuits, reducing nuisance trips while maintaining rapid fault isolation in factory automation environments. This makes it well-suited for PLC inputs, sensors, and motor control circuits where uptime is critical.
FAZ-Z6/4 is certified to UL 1077, CSA Std. C22.2 No.235, and IEC 60947-2, ensuring compliance for industrial circuits and panel protection. These markings support regulatory approvals, safety engineering, and safe operation across manufacturing facilities. The 1-year warranty also provides assurance against manufacturing defects.
While price varies by supplier, the FAZ-Z6/4 delivers predictable maintenance costs through a compact, robust design and a 1-year warranty. Its precise protection reduces downstream damage and downtime in control panels, improving mean time between failures for critical automation systems. Easy installation and standard terminals further lower installation and retrofit expenses.
