Design Of The ProductFor starter combinations

Product details

The Siemens 3RV2321-4NC20 is a SIRIUS circuit breaker designed explicitly for starter combinations — meaning it's sized and coordinated for motor branch-circuit protection, not just general distribution. That's the spec the panel designer cares about for selectivity and SCCR compliance.

That means the fuse coordination is flat across the voltage band; you don't need to swap fuses when the line voltage changes within that range.

The 45 mm width occupies one standard module slot on the rail. Clearance requirements: 50 mm upward and downward, 30 mm at the side, zero forward and backward. Any mounting position allowed. These clearances are tight enough for dense panels but the 50 mm vertical gap matters when routing busbars or trunking above and below the breaker.

Frequently asked questions

How do I get current pricing and availability for 3RV2321-4NC20?

Submit an RFQ through this listing. The part is sourced to order via independent distribution; pricing and stock are confirmed at quote time — no automated price or lead-time figure is published here.

Will 3RV2321-4NC20 drop into a panel specified for 3RV2021-4NA25?

Both are 45 mm-wide SIRIUS circuit breakers on the same DIN-rail footprint. The 3RV2321-4NC20 carries a higher 55 kA SCCR at 400 V versus the 3RV2021-4NA25's lower interrupting rating. If the panel's fault current is within the 3RV2021's rating, the 3RV2321 will physically fit and function — but verify the overload setting range and fuse coordination match the motor nameplate.

What compliance documentation is available for 3RV2321-4NC20?

As a Siemens SIRIUS product, the 3RV2321-4NC20 carries IEC and UL/CSA certifications standard for the series. Specific declarations (RoHS, REACH, UL file number) are included in the manufacturer's documentation package available on request.
