That 40 A continuous rating means it's sized for motor full-load currents up to that level, not for feeder or distribution duty where the thermal curve would be set differently. The interrupting capacity tells the real story: 187 kA at 240 V, 121 kA at 415 V and 440 V, 75.6 kA at 500 V, and 17 kA at 690 V. Those are high-interrupt ratings — this breaker clears faults without cascading upstream, which matters when you're coordinating a panel with high available fault current. Maximum power loss is 75 W. Latching endurance is 20,000 operations.","metaTitle":"Siemens 3VA2140-5MN32-0CA0 SENTRON MCCB, 40 A, 187 kA IC","metaDescription":"Siemens 3VA2140-5MN32-0CA0 SENTRON molded case circuit breaker, 40 A rated current, 187 kA interrupting capacity at 240 V, motor protection version with undervoltage release.
