Interrupting capacity is 121 kA at 240 V, 75.6 kA at 415 V and 440 V, 52.5 kA at 500 V, and 11.9 kA at 690 V. It mounts in a panel with a 184 mm width, 248 mm height, and 110 mm depth. Front protection is IP40. Panel integration: the 184 mm width and 110 mm depth fit a standard MCCB cutout. If the BOM calls for aux contacts or remote trip, you need the accessory kit separately.","metaTitle":"SENTRON 3VA1450-4EF42-0AA0 MCCB, 500 A, 4-Pole, TM240","metaDescription":"SENTRON 3VA1450-4EF42-0AA0 4-pole molded case circuit breaker, 500 A at 40 °C, 121 kA interrupting at 240 V.
