Design Of The Productfor starter combinations

Product details

The 45 mm width (3-module) footprint is standard for this class — fits a typical 8-module enclosure with room for a contactor and auxiliary alongside. The IP20 finger-safe front means the busbars and terminals are touch-protected from the front, but the interior still needs enclosure protection against dust and moisture.

Terminal and wiring

Each pole accepts 2x (1–2.5 mm²) solid or stranded, or 2x (2.5–6 mm²) — the dual-entry lets you loop-through without a separate terminal block. AWG equivalent is 2x (14–10). No backwards clearance needed, and 0 mm side clearance means you can butt adjacent devices. The 0.2–2.5 mm² range covers standard control wiring; the 2.5–6 mm² range handles the motor power tails.

Protection and environment

Shock resistance is 25g for 11 ms, which is typical for industrial panel mounting near rotating machinery. No ground fault or phase failure detection built in — this is a straight thermal-magnetic overload and short-circuit protector for three-phase motors.

Power dissipation and auxiliary options

That's moderate — expect some heat rise in a sealed enclosure, but nothing that forces derating in a standard ventilated panel at 40 °C ambient. The breaker accepts an auxiliary switch (product extension auxiliary switch = Yes), so you can add a signal contact for remote status indication or PLC feedback. Maximum switching frequency at AC-3 is 15 operations per hour — fine for pump or fan cycling, not for high-speed jogging.

Frequently asked questions

How do I get pricing and availability for 3RV1321-4DC10?

This part is sourced and quoted to order through independent distribution. Submit an RFQ for current pricing and availability — confirmed at quote time.

What is the depth of 3RV1321-4DC10?

The depth is 96 mm, with a width of 45 mm and height of 97 mm.

What wire sizes does the 3RV1321-4DC10 accept?

Screw terminals accept 2x (1–2.5 mm²) or 2x (2.5–6 mm²) solid or stranded, AWG 2x (14–10).

Will 3RV1321-4DC10 drop into a panel specified for 5SJ3140-7?

No — the 5SJ3140-7 is a Siemens 5SJ miniature circuit breaker (MCB) for branch circuit protection, not a motor starter combination breaker. The 3RV1321-4DC10 is a different form factor (45 mm wide vs 18 mm per pole) and serves a different function (motor overload + short-circuit vs. cable protection). Rewiring and panel layout changes would be required.

What compliance documentation does Siemens provide for 3RV1321-4DC10?

The part carries a substance prohibitance date of 01.05.2012, indicating RoHS compliance. Standard documentation includes the CE declaration, UL/CSA file, and IEC 60947-2 test reports. Request specific certificates with your RFQ.
