It is specifically designed for motor protection, with phase failure detection built in, so it will trip on a lost phase before the motor winding overheats. ## Breaking capacity — what the voltage columns mean for your panel This breaker delivers 187 kA at 240 V, 121 kA at 415 V and 440 V, 75.6 kA at 500 V, and 9 kA at 690 V. The steep drop above 500 V is typical for a 400 A frame — at 690 V the available fault current in most industrial panels is well under 9 kA, so it still holds.","metaTitle":"Siemens 3VA2440-5MN32-0AG0 SENTRON MCCB, 400 A, 3-Pole, Moto","metaDescription":"Siemens SENTRON 3VA2440-5MN32-0AG0 molded case circuit breaker, 400 A rated, 3-pole, motor protection design with phase failure detection.
