SENTRON 3VA1032-2ED36-0DC0 — 32 A MCCB with TM210 Release
The Siemens SENTRON 3VA1032-2ED36-0DC0 is a 3-pole molded case circuit breaker (MCCB) rated for line protection, carrying 32 A continuous at 40 °C through 50 °C, with a thermal-magnetic TM210 release. Breaking capacity hits 52.5 kA at 240 V, 32 kA at 415 V — enough to handle high-fault commercial and industrial panel feeds without cascading upstream. The 76.2 mm width and 70 mm depth fit standard SENTRON panel footprints, and the IP40 front keeps dust out of the enclosure face.
What the Ratings Mean for Fit
The 32 A rating holds flat from 40 °C to 50 °C, then derates to 30.72 A at 55 °C and 28.8 A at 70 °C — so in a warm panel near the top of a cabinet, you lose about 3 A. The 52.5 kA at 240 V and 32 kA at 415 V cover most North American and European distribution faults; the 7.5 kA at 690 V is there for 600 V class industrial systems. The TM210 release is a fixed thermal-magnetic curve — no interchangeable trip units, but reliable and simple for standard feeder or branch protection.
Compliance and Documentation
Rated insulation voltage Ui is 800 V. Reference code per DIN EN 81346-2 is Q. Storage range is -40 °C to 80 °C; operating range is -25 °C to 70 °C. The part carries no communication function or phase failure detection — it's a straightforward thermal-magnetic breaker for line protection. No ground fault monitoring version is included.
