Its Class 10 trip characteristic means it clears a stalled-rotor condition fast enough to protect standard induction motors — the trip curve opens within 10 seconds at 7.2× the thermal setting, which is what keeps the winding insulation intact during a jammed conveyor or crusher overload. Breaking capacity hits 100 kA at 400 V, 500 V, and 690 V — that's the full rated short-circuit current the device can interrupt without welding contacts or venting plasma. In a 480 V panel the same rating applies, so it handles the high-fault-current scenarios common in mining and heavy industrial distribution.

Frequently asked questions
Where can I buy 3RV1011-0BA15 and get a price?
It is sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution. Submit a request for quote; availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time.
What is the closest functional second-source for 3RV1011-0BA15?
The 3RV1011-0GA10 is a peer within the same SIRIUS frame size and mounting footprint. Check the trip-class and breaking-capacity ratings on that variant before substituting — the 0BA15 carries a Class 10 trip and 100 kA at 400 V, which the 0GA10 may or may not match.
Will 3RV1011-0BA15 drop into a panel specified around 3RV1011-0GA10?
Both share the same 45 mm width and 35 mm DIN-rail snap-on mounting, so the physical swap is straightforward. Verify the trip class and breaking capacity on the 0GA10 against your fault-current study before committing.
What is the listed Note (1) on this component line?
The evidence record shows a Note value of '1' for this order code. The manufacturer's datasheet should be consulted for the exact meaning of that note.
What compliance documentation does Siemens provide for 3RV1011-0BA15?
Standard SIRIUS circuit-breaker documentation includes RoHS and REACH declarations, plus UL and IEC certification reports per IEC 60947-2 and UL 489. These are available from Siemens support or through your distributor.
