Front protection is IP40, so it's splash-safe in a clean enclosure but not washdown-rated. ## Integrated auxiliary and undervoltage release The auxiliary contact order code for replacement is 3VA9608-0BB24.","metaTitle":"Siemens SENTRON 3VA1196-4EF32-0CC0 MCCB, 16 A, 121 kA at 240","metaDescription":"Siemens SENTRON 3VA1196-4EF32-0CC0 molded case circuit breaker, 16 A rated, TM240 release, 121 kA at 240 V.
