Siemens SENTRON 3VA1040-3ED36-0DA0 is a 3-pole molded case circuit breaker (MCCB) rated 40 A continuous at 40 °C, with a TM210 thermal-magnetic release. It's built for line protection — main feeder or large branch circuit — in commercial and industrial panels. The interrupting capacity hits 75.6 kA at 240 V AC, tapering to 7.5 kA at 690 V, so it handles high available fault current at common distribution voltages without cascading upstream. No separate auxiliary release to buy and install.
Above that it derates: 38.4 A at 55 °C, 37.6 A at 60 °C, stepping down to 36 A at 70 °C.
