The Siemens SENTRON 3VA1032-2ED32-0DC0 is a 3-pole molded case circuit breaker (MCCB) rated for 32 A continuous current at 40 °C, with a TM210 thermal-magnetic overcurrent release. It's part of the SENTRON 3VA line — the standard panelboard and distribution board breaker for commercial and industrial installations up to 690 V.
Breaking capacity is listed at four voltage points: 52.5 kA at 240 V, 32 kA at 415 V, 13.6 kA at 440 V, and 7.5 kA at 690 V. The 52.5 kA at 240 V covers single-phase line-to-neutral faults on a 240/415 V wye system. For a 690 V motor feeder, the 7.5 kA rating still handles most industrial fault levels, but verify against your transformer's nameplate.
Current derating and ambient temperature
At 55 °C it drops to 30.72 A, at 60 °C to 30.08 A, at 65 °C to 29.44 A, and at 70 °C to 28.8 A.
The auxiliary contacts let you wire a remote status signal — open/closed indication to a PLC or a panel lamp.
