The 2-pole construction handles single-phase or line-to-line loads. Insulation voltage is 500 V, operating voltage 415 V AC or 250 V DC. Dimensions are 70 mm deep, 50.8 mm wide, 130 mm tall — a standard 2-pole MCCB footprint that fits existing SENTRON or 3VA panel bases without re-drilling. ## What the IP40 means on the front The body itself is not sealed for washdown, so keep it inside the enclosure, not on the gland plate.","metaTitle":"Siemens 3VA1196-5ED26-0AA0 SENTRON MCCB, 2-Pole, 16 A, 187 k","metaDescription":"Siemens 3VA1196-5ED26-0AA0 SENTRON 2-pole molded case circuit breaker, 16 A rated, 187 kA at 240 V.
