FAL36040 - 40 Amp Circuit Breaker Description
FAL36040 - 40 Amp Circuit Breaker
The FAL36040 is a 40 Amp, 3-pole thermal magnetic circuit breaker used in electrical systems built around the Type FAL frame. For maintenance and replacement work, matching the existing breaker specifications is usually the priority. This model provides the same form, fit, and function needed for compatible installations while keeping the original equipment layout unchanged.
The breaker includes an AL100FA terminal configuration and is HACR rated for approved heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration applications. Whether you're using it during scheduled maintenance or replacing an existing device, the FAL36040 helps keep the original electrical design intact. Like other FAL series breakers, it is built to last and intended for long-term service in properly maintained systems.
