Product details

At 690 V AC, the rating drops to 2 kA, so verify your line voltage against the table before specifying. The gG fuse coordination values are given: 63 A at 400 V, 50 A at 500 V, 40 A at 690 V — these tell you the maximum upstream fuse that maintains selectivity. The maximum switching rate is 15 operations per hour at AC-3 duty (cites:,). For a transformer that cycles on load, that's ample; for a high-speed process with frequent starts, check the duty cycle.

Screw and snap-on both work; the snap-on saves time on a panel build. Clearance requirements: 50 mm upwards and downwards, 30 mm at the sides, 0 mm forwards and backwards. That means you can butt it against the back panel and adjacent devices, but leave breathing space top and bottom for arc extinguishing.

Frequently asked questions

What is the breaking capacity of 3RV2421-4AA20-0DA0 at 400 V?

25 kA at 400 V AC. At 240 V AC it is 100 kA, and at 690 V AC it drops to 2 kA.

Where can I buy 3RV2421-4AA20-0DA0 and what is the price?

This part is sourced to order against an RFQ through independent distribution channels. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time — submit an RFQ for a firm price and lead time.

Will 3RV2421-4AA20-0DA0 drop into a panel built for 3RV1011-1HA10?

No, not without checking the panel cutout. The 3RV2421-4AA20-0DA0 is an S0 frame size (45 mm wide, 97 mm deep), while the 3RV1011-1HA10 uses a different frame. Terminal spacing and DIN rail position may differ — verify dimensions before ordering.
