The ETU550 electronic trip unit gives you adjustable long-time (tr) from 0.5 to 20 s and short-time (tsd) up to 0.5 s, so you can shape the curve for selective coordination downstream. The IP40 front protection means it's suited for enclosed panels where the door provides the environmental seal. Maximum power loss is 25.5 W — relevant for thermal calculations in a densely populated enclosure.","metaTitle":"Siemens 3VA2116-6JP36-0AA0 SENTRON MCCB, 160 A, 242 kA at 24","metaDescription":"Siemens SENTRON 3VA2116-6JP36-0AA0 molded case circuit breaker, 160 A rated continuous current, 3-pole, ETU550 release.
