Product details

The Siemens SIRIUS 3RV1331-4FC10 is a 3-pole circuit breaker designed for starter combinations, rated 40 A continuous and 18.5 kW motor output at 400 V AC. It snaps onto a 35 mm DIN rail per EN 50022 and accepts screw-type box terminals for the main circuit — solid up to 2x 16 mm² or stranded up to 2x 25 mm². Breaking capacity hits 50 kA at 400 V, dropping to 10 kA at 500 V and 4 kA at 690 V, so it handles high-fault panels without cascading upstream.

Zero clearance needed at the back or sides, so it packs tight in a panel.

Rated impulse withstand voltage is 6 kV, surge voltage resistance at 6 000 V. Operating frequency maxes at 15 operations per hour under AC-3 duty, so it's built for occasional motor starts, not high-cycle jogging.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy 3RV1331-4FC10 and how is it quoted?

This part is sourced to order against an RFQ through independent distribution channels. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time — submit an RFQ for a firm price and lead time.

What is the breaking capacity of 3RV1331-4FC10 at different voltages?

At 240 V AC it's 100 kA; at 400 V AC it's 50 kA; at 500 V AC it's 10 kA; at 690 V AC it's 4 kA. The 50 kA at 400 V covers most industrial panel fault levels.

What compliance documentation does Siemens provide for 3RV1331-4FC10?

The part carries a RoHS substance prohibition date of July 1, 2006, indicating RoHS compliance. Additional certifications (UL, CSA, IEC) are standard for the SIRIUS line but not individually listed in this record.
