Product details

The 75.6 kA interrupting rating at 240 V means it can safely break a fault current up to that level without welding contacts or cascading failure upstream — critical for high-capacity panels. At 415 V it still handles 52.5 kA, and at 440 V it drops to 32 kA, so verify the available fault current at your system voltage. The 40 A rating holds flat from 40 °C to 50 °C; above that it derates gradually to 36 A at 70 °C. That thermal stability makes it a solid choice for enclosures with moderate heat rise — no need to oversize for a warm panel. Dimensions are 130 mm high, 76.2 mm wide, 70 mm deep — fits standard MCCB mounting footprints on DIN rail or backplate.

Mounting and integration notes

Mounts on DIN rail or backplate; the 76.2 mm width matches the standard 3-pole MCCB footprint — no panel rework needed if swapping from another SENTRON 3VA three-pole.

Frequently asked questions

How do I get current pricing and availability for 3VA1040-3ED36-0AH0?

Submit an RFQ through this listing. Pricing and stock are confirmed at quote time via independent distribution channels.

What is the interrupting rating of 3VA1040-3ED36-0AH0 at 240 V?

It is rated 75.6 kA at 240 V, 52.5 kA at 415 V, and 32 kA at 440 V.

What does the TM210 release mean on this MCCB?

TM210 is a fixed thermal-magnetic release: the thermal element provides overload protection adjustable to 40 A, and the magnetic element provides fixed short-circuit protection. No electronic adjustments or communication functions.
