The Siemens 3RV2021-1HA10 is a SIRIUS motor-protection circuit breaker designed for Class 10 trip characteristics, meaning it will open within 10 seconds under a locked-rotor condition — matching the thermal curve of standard IEC induction motors up to about 5 hp at 460/480 V. It carries a 100 kA interrupting capacity at 400 V AC, which covers most industrial service-entrance and distribution-panel fault levels without requiring upstream current-limiting fuses.
Mounting and integration
Mounts via screw or snap-on onto 35 mm DIN rail per DIN EN 60715. The 45 mm width matches the standard SIRIUS compact frame — fits alongside contactors in a motor starter assembly without extra panel space. Any mounting position is permitted. Main circuit terminals accept 2x (1 to 2.5 mm²) or 2x (2.5 to 10 mm²) solid or stranded copper, M4 screw-type.
