The 52.5 kA interrupting rating at 240 V, 32 kA at 415 V, and 7.5 kA at 690 V tell you the fault current it can safely clear at each voltage — critical for selectivity studies and SCCR compliance upstream of a panel. The rated continuous current Iu of 32 A holds across 40 °C to 50 °C, then derates to 28.8 A at 70 °C; that thermal curve governs the actual load you can hang on it in a warm enclosure. Fit: the breaker occupies 130 mm height, 76.2 mm width, 70 mm depth — standard SENTRON 3VA footprint for a 32 A frame. Two HQ auxiliary switches are factory-fitted (the integrated auxiliary trip is order code 3VA9688-0BL33).
