Product details

Breaking capacity climbs with system voltage: 52.5 kA at 240 V, 32 kA at 415 V, 13.6 kA at 440 V, and 7.5 kA at 690 V. At 415 V, that 32 kA covers most industrial distribution panels in common low-voltage networks — enough to clear a fault without upstream coordination headaches. The 690 V figure matters for 690 V line supplies (some mining, marine, or heavy industrial plants).

Thermal derating — what the current numbers mean

Above that, it derates: 76.8 A at 55 °C, 75.2 A at 60 °C, 73.6 A at 65 °C, and 72 A at 70 °C. The TM210 release does not need external adjustment; the thermal element self-compensates.

Panel fit and aux contacts

Dimensions: 101.6 mm wide, 130 mm high, 70 mm deep. That 101.6 mm width is a standard 4-pole MCCB footprint — it occupies four 25.4 mm (1-inch) module positions on a DIN rail or panel-mount base. The 70 mm depth keeps it clear of most gland plates and backpanel wiring troughs. The auxiliary switch follows the breaker position; the trip alarm signals only on a fault trip, not on manual switching. That is useful for remote indication — the alarm contact can trigger a PLC input or a panel light when the breaker clears a fault. No additional auxiliary release is fitted, but the HQ contact block is factory-integrated.

Frequently asked questions

What is the breaking capacity of 3VA1080-2ED42-0AF0 at 415 V?

32 kA at 415 V. At 240 V it is 52.5 kA, at 440 V it is 13.6 kA, and at 690 V it is 7.5 kA.

What is the rated current and how does it derate with temperature?

Rated continuous current Iu is 80 A. It holds 80 A from 40 °C to 50 °C, then derates to 76.8 A at 55 °C, 75.2 A at 60 °C, 73.6 A at 65 °C, and 72 A at 70 °C.

Does 3VA1080-2ED42-0AF0 include auxiliary contacts?

Yes, it comes with one auxiliary switch and one trip alarm switch (HQ type). The auxiliary switch signals the breaker position; the trip alarm signals only on a fault trip.

Where can I buy 3VA1080-2ED42-0AF0 and what is the lead time?

This part is sourced to order against an RFQ through independent distribution. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time — submit an RFQ for a firm lead time and price.
