Product details

Motor-protection circuit breaker, SIRIUS 3RV2, 45 mm

Ground fault detection is not included.

Breaking capacity and back-up fusing

Rated breaking capacity reaches 100 kA at 240 V, dropping to 25 kA at 400 V, 5 kA at 500 V, and 2 kA at 690 V. For installations requiring higher fault current withstand at the higher voltages, the back-up fuse ratings are specified: gL/gG 63 A at 400 V, 50 A at 500 V, and 50 A at 690 V. The AC-3e switching frequency is rated at a maximum of 15 operations per hour — adequate for motor starting duty on pumps, fans, and compressors, but not for high-cycle jogging applications.

Mounting position is any orientation. Main contact terminals accept M4 screws; the control circuit terminals accept solid or stranded wire: 2× (0.5 to 1.5 mm²) or 2× (0.75 to 2.5 mm²).

Frequently asked questions

How do I get current pricing and availability for 3RV2021-4CA15?

Submit an RFQ through this listing; availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time through independent distribution channels.

What is the closest functional alternative to 3RV2021-4CA15?

The 3RV2021-4CA25 is the closest peer within the same SIRIUS 3RV2 family. Both share the same 45 mm width, Trip Class 10, and DIN-rail mounting. The key difference is the thermal setting range — verify your motor FLA against the 4CA25's adjustment range before substituting.

Will 3RV2021-4CA15 drop into a panel specified around 3RV2021-4CA25 without rewiring?

Yes, both share the same 45 mm width, 97 mm depth, DIN-rail snap-on mounting, and M4 main contact terminals. No panel rework or rewiring is required for the mechanical fit.

What compliance documentation does Siemens provide for 3RV2021-4CA15?

Standard Siemens SIRIUS documentation includes the declaration of conformity (CE), UL/CSA file, and RoHS/REACH compliance declarations. These are available on request with the order.
