The 160 A rating holds from 40 °C through 50 °C; above that it derates to 153.6 A at 55 °C, 150.4 A at 60 °C, 147.2 A at 65 °C, and 144 A at 70 °C. ## Auxiliary release and mounting This version ships without auxiliary contacts or ground-fault monitoring. It carries a shunt trip (STL) release — order code 3VA9688-0BL32 for the integrated auxiliary trip — for remote tripping on a control signal.
