FCL3040L | Circuit Breaker | 40A | 3-Pole | 480V

Meet the FCL3040L circuit breaker—a purpose-built, industrial-grade protective device designed for demanding 3‑phase 480V systems. With a 40A rating and a 3‑pole configuration, it delivers dependable overcurrent protection for maintenance, retrofit, and replacement projects where exact compatibility matters.

Key specifications

• Amperage: 40A
• Poles: 3‑Pole
• Voltage: 480V
• Compatibility note: Confirm fit and ratings before ordering. Part number is the best reference for compatibility.

Why the FCL3040L stands out

In 480V industrial environments, a true 3‑pole configuration ensures all three phases are disconnected together, enhancing safety and minimizing downtime during trips. The FCL3040L is specified to align with matching panels and assemblies, providing a reliable, like-for-like replacement that reduces guesswork during maintenance or upgrades. By centering on the exact part number, you avoid mismatches and ensure a smoother retrofit or service workflow.

Ideal use cases

• Maintenance and servicing of 3‑phase 480V equipment (motors, pumps, conveyors, presses)
• Retrofits and replacements where the original 40A/3‑pole/480V spec must be preserved
• Spare part for critical lines to minimize unexpected downtime

How to ensure a perfect fit

Before purchasing, verify that the FCL3040L matches your panel’s requirements. The part number is the most reliable reference for compatibility, ensuring correct ratings, mounting footprint, and electrical fit within your existing 3‑phase infrastructure.

Installation tips

• Power down the system and follow lockout/tagout procedures prior to installation.
• Inspect bus connections and mounting alignment to ensure secure, proper integration in a 3‑phase panel.
• Label the circuit clearly after installation to facilitate future maintenance and troubleshooting.
