The adjustable thermal-magnetic trip unit is set at the factory with a minimum of 600 A and maximum of 4 800 A, giving selectivity headroom for downstream breakers. Per the datasheet, the basic switch core is order code 3VA2440-5HL32-0AA0. The shunt trip allows remote tripping from a PLC safety output or E-stop circuit; the auxiliary switches provide status feedback — open/closed indication to the control system or a remote annunciator panel. If UVR or GF protection is required, that is a different factory variant — the 3VA2 platform supports those, but this specific code omits them. Dimensions are 248 mm height, 138 mm width, 110 mm depth. The width is a 3-pole frame; a 4-pole version would be wider.","metaTitle":"Siemens SENTRON 3VA2440-5HL32-0JC0 MCCB, 400 A, 187 kA at 24","metaDescription":"Siemens SENTRON 3VA2440-5HL32-0JC0 molded case circuit breaker, 3-pole, 400 A continuous at 70 °C, 187 kA breaking at 240 VAC.
