Design Of The ProductFor motor protection

Product details

It includes phase failure detection, which trips the breaker if one phase is lost, preventing single-phasing damage to the motor. Ground fault detection is not built in, so any ground-fault protection must be added upstream or in the drive.

Overall dimensions: 45 mm wide, 119 mm tall, 97 mm deep.

Short-circuit withstand and coordination

Rated short-circuit breaking capacity is 100 kA at 240 V AC, 25 kA at 400 V, and 2 kA at 690 V. For backup protection with upstream fuses, the table shows gL/gG fuse ratings: 63 A at 400 V, 50 A at 500 V and 690 V. That fuse size limits let-through energy so the breaker coordinates with a downstream contactor or starter.

Frequently asked questions

What are the key ratings of this motor protection circuit breaker?

Trip Class 10, phase failure detection, spring-loaded terminals for the main circuit. Short-circuit breaking capacity: 100 kA at 240 V, 25 kA at 400 V, 2 kA at 690 V. Clearance requirements: 50 mm above/below, 30 mm sides, zero forward/backward.

What compliance documentation is available for this part?

The evidence does not list specific compliance marks (RoHS, REACH, UL, IEC). Standard Siemens SIRIUS components typically carry CE, UL, and CCC markings, but this should be verified against the specific variant's declaration of conformity for the target market.
