Product details

SENTRON 3VA1096-2ED32-0AA0 — 16 A MCCB with TM210 release

The Siemens 3VA1096-2ED32-0AA0 is a 3-pole SENTRON molded case circuit breaker rated 16 A continuous at 40 °C, with a TM210 thermal-magnetic release. The TM210 designation means the thermal element is fixed at 16 A (the Iu rating) and the magnetic short-circuit pickup is adjustable from 160 A to 320 A (10–20× In), giving you flexibility to coordinate with downstream branch devices without swapping trip units. Breaking capacity is 52.5 kA at 240 V AC, dropping to 32 kA at 415 V, 13.6 kA at 440 V, and 7.5 kA at 500 V and 690 V. At 240 V this covers most North American panelboard fault-current requirements; at 415 V it handles European industrial distribution. Thermal derating is minimal through 55 °C — still 16 A — then drops to 15 A at 60 °C through 70 °C. Rated insulation voltage Ui is 800 V, so the breaker is suitable for 480/277 V and 600/347 V systems with margin.

Dimensions are 130 mm height, 76.2 mm width, 70 mm depth — a standard 3-pole MCCB footprint for DIN-rail or screw-mount panel integration.

Frequently asked questions

What is the breaking capacity of 3VA1096-2ED32-0AA0 at 415 V?

32 kA at 415 V AC, which covers most European industrial distribution fault levels.

Where can I buy 3VA1096-2ED32-0AA0 and how is it quoted?

This part is sourced to order against an RFQ through independent distribution channels. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time — no stock or price figures are published here.

What does the TM210 release mean on this MCCB?

TM210 means a thermal-magnetic release with a fixed 16 A thermal element and an adjustable magnetic short-circuit pickup from 160 A to 320 A (10–20× In).
