Its electronic trip unit is adjustable from 600 A to 4000 A full-scale, with an initial setting of 80 A, giving the specifying engineer selectivity headroom across a wide feeder range. Breaking capacity reaches 187 kA at 240 V AC, 121 kA at 415 V and 440 V AC, and 75.6 kA at 500 V AC — figures that satisfy high-fault utility service entrances and large industrial switchboards without cascading upstream. ## Panel footprint and integration The breaker occupies 248 mm height, 138 mm width, and 110 mm depth — a 3-pole frame that fits standard SENTRON mounting patterns and leaves room for the factory-fitted auxiliary switch complement: two auxiliary switches, one trip alarm switch, and one electrical alarm switch (HQ type). A shunt trip release (STL) is included for remote tripping; undervoltage release is not fitted on this variant.","metaTitle":"Siemens 3VA2340-5JQ32-0KL0 SENTRON MCCB, 400 A, 3-pole, 187","metaDescription":"Siemens SENTRON 3VA2340-5JQ32-0KL0 molded case circuit breaker, 400 A, 3-pole, 600–4000 A adjustable trip, 187 kA at 240 V.
