Product details

SIRIUS circuit breaker for starter combinations

Mounting is via screw and snap-on onto 35 mm DIN rail per DIN EN 60715, and the part accepts conductor cross-sections up to 70 mm² on the main circuit, with solid or stranded wire from 2.5 mm² up to 50 mm² in dual feed.

Environmental and clearance notes

The part has no ground-fault detection and no phase-failure detection — it is a straightforward thermal-magnetic or electronic overload relay, not a multifunction protection device. Dimensions are 176 mm deep, 70 mm wide, and 165 mm high, fitting standard 70 mm-wide DIN-rail slots. Clearance requirements: 150 mm above and below for air circulation and arc quenching, 30 mm to the sides, and zero clearance forward or backward — so it can be butted against a backplane or enclosure wall without derating.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy 3RV2342-4MC10 and get a price?

We source the 3RV2342-4MC10 to order against an RFQ. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time — submit an RFQ through the site for a firm commercial response.

What is the breaking capacity of 3RV2342-4MC10 at 400 V?

At 400 V AC, the breaking capacity is 100 kA. At 230 V AC it is 20 hp equivalent, at 240 V AC it is 100 kA, at 500 V AC it is 5 kA, and at 690 V AC it is 3 kA.

What conductor sizes does 3RV2342-4MC10 accept?

The main circuit screw terminals accept solid or stranded wire: 2x (2.5–16 mm²) or 1x (10–70 mm²) for the main circuit, and 2x (2.5–50 mm²) or 1x (10–70 mm²) for the solid or stranded option.
