Product details

SIRIUS 3RV2342-4FC10 — Circuit Breaker for Starter Combinations

Physical envelope: 70 mm wide, 165 mm tall, 176 mm deep. That depth is the dimension from the DIN rail mounting surface to the furthest projection — important when you're laying out the gland plate or door clearance. That zero forward clearance means you can mount it flush against a panel backplate without worrying about arc flash venting.

Main circuit terminals are screw-type, accepting solid or stranded copper: 2x (2.5 to 16 mm²) per clamp, or a single conductor up to 70 mm². That's enough for a 40 A motor circuit at 480 V or 600 V without needing a reducer or pigtail.

Frequently asked questions

What is the interrupting rating of 3RV2342-4FC10 at 400 V?

100 kA at 400 V AC, which is the SCCR the breaker can safely clear without upstream cascading failure.

What are the mounting dimensions and clearance requirements?

Width 70 mm, height 165 mm, depth 176 mm. Requires 150 mm free space above and below, 30 mm to the side, zero forward or backward clearance.

What wire sizes does the screw terminal accept?

Screw terminals accept 2x (2.5 to 16 mm²) solid or stranded, or a single conductor up to 70 mm².

Where can I buy 3RV2342-4FC10?

Sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution; availability and current pricing confirmed at quote time.
