The Siemens 3RV1031-4GB10 is a SIRIUS motor-protection circuit breaker rated for 45 A continuous current with a CLASS 20 trip characteristic, sized for a 22 kW motor at 400 V. It snaps onto a 35 mm DIN rail per EN 50022 and uses screw-type box terminals for the main circuit — 2x (0.75…16 mm²) solid or 2x (0.75…25 mm²) stranded, with a single conductor up to 35 mm² stranded.
Trip class and protection logic
CLASS 20 means the bimetal trip allows up to 20 seconds at 600% of the full-load current before opening — standard for general-purpose induction motors driving pumps, fans, and compressors where the start-up transient isn't extreme. No ground-fault detection here; if you need that, you'd add a separate ground-fault module or use a different frame.
Zero clearance needed at the back or sides — you can butt it against other devices without derating spacing. The screw terminals accept AWG 18…2 for the main circuit.
Shock rated at 25 g / 11 ms. RoHS compliance date is July 1, 2006, so it meets the EU directive.
