Interrupting capacity at 240 V is 187 kA; at 415 V and 440 V it's 121 kA; at 500 V it's 75.6 kA; at 690 V it's 9 kA. Depth of 110 mm includes the handle and terminals; leave clearance for cable bending radius and the UVR coil projection on the left side. ## Time-current characteristics The short-time withstand rating is 6 kA limited to 1 s — that's the thermal let-through the breaker can handle during a delayed trip coordination interval. The trip unit's minimum response time is 4 s, maximum 13 s, which puts it in the 'selective' band for downstream coordination with smaller MCCBs or fused switches. ## Environmental limits The storage low end matters if this sits in an unheated warehouse before installation — it's fine down to -40 °C, but don't energize below -25 °C.","metaTitle":"Siemens SENTRON 3VA2450-5MN32-0DC0 MCCB, 500 A, 3-Pole","metaDescription":"Siemens SENTRON 3VA2450-5MN32-0DC0 molded case circuit breaker, 500 A at 40 °C, 3-pole, 187 kA at 240 V.
