Product details

That is high enough to sit upstream of most downstream faults without cascading — the breaker clears a bolted fault before the upstream device has to move. Continuous current ratings are 10 A at both 480 V and 600 V. That sets the motor FLA it can protect — a 10 A continuous rating typically covers a 5 hp motor at 460/480 V or a 10 hp motor at 575/600 V. For lower voltages the horsepower table runs from 0.5 hp at 110/120 V up to 3 hp at 220/230 V.

Clearance requirements: 50 mm upwards, 50 mm downwards, 30 mm at the sides, zero forwards or backwards. That is tight — the breaker can sit flush against the back panel and against adjacent devices on the rail, saving enclosure width. No screw torque to verify; just strip and insert. The spring clamp holds well under vibration common on a motor starter panel.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy 3RV2321-1JC20 and how do I get a price?

We source and quote this breaker to order against an RFQ. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time — send your quantity and target delivery window.

What is 3RV2321-1JC20's breaking capacity at 400 V?

100 kA at 400 V AC — high enough for most industrial panels without cascading upstream.

Will 3RV2321-1JC20 drop into a panel specified around 3RV2011-0BA20 without rewiring?

Both are Siemens SIRIUS circuit breakers on the same 45 mm width footprint and 35 mm DIN rail mounting. The 3RV2011-0BA20 is a different rating tier — verify the continuous current and breaking capacity match your motor FLA and available fault current before swapping.
