Product details

What this breaker does on the line

The Siemens SIRIUS 3RV6321-4BC10 is a three-pole circuit breaker built for starter combinations — meaning it lives right ahead of a contactor in a motor branch circuit. It gives you both overload and short-circuit protection in one package, and the magnetic instantaneous trip is set at 260 A, so it clears a fault fast before the contactor takes damage. Rated operational current is 20 A in AC-3 duty at 400 V, which covers a fair range of small-to-mid motor loads on a 50/60 Hz line. This is a size S0 frame, which is the compact workhorse form factor in the SIRIUS line — 45 mm wide, 97 mm tall, 96 mm deep. Power loss is 8 W typical, so it won't cook the enclosure if you've got a row of them.

Mounting and wiring in the panel

Clearance requirements: 50 mm above and below, 30 mm to the sides, zero forward or backward — so you can butt it against a backplane or gland plate without extra breathing room. Terminals are screw-type on top and bottom, accepting 2x (1 to 2.5 mm²) solid/stranded or 2x (2.5 to 10 mm²). Torque to 2 to 2.5 N·m on the main contacts. AWG equivalents are 2x (16 to 12) and 2x (14 to 8).

RoHS compliance date is noted as May 1, 2012, which covers the EU RoHS directive. Relative humidity tolerance is 10 to 95% during operation. Shock resistance per IEC 60068-2-27 is 25 g for 11 ms. Installation altitude max is 2000 m above sea level.

Frequently asked questions

What are the key ratings for 3RV6321-4BC10?

Rated operational current 20 A at AC-3, 400 V; insulation voltage 690 V; instantaneous short-circuit trip set at 260 A; rated impulse withstand voltage 6 kV; operating frequency 50/60 Hz.

What compliance documentation does this breaker carry?

RoHS compliance dated May 1, 2012. Shock tested per IEC 60068-2-27 at 25 g / 11 ms. Operating temperature range -20 to +60 °C.

Where can I buy 3RV6321-4BC10 and how is it quoted?

Sourced through independent industrial-automation distribution. Quoted to order against an RFQ; availability and current pricing confirmed at the time of quote.

Will 3RV6321-4BC10 drop into a panel wired for 3RV6021-4DA10?

Both are size S0 frames on 35 mm DIN rail, same mounting footprint. The 3RV6321-4BC10 carries a 20 A AC-3 rating versus the peer's rating; verify the trip curve and instantaneous setting match your motor FLA before swapping. Wiring terminals are the same screw-type arrangement.
