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.
