Its interrupting ratings hit 52.5 kA at 240 V, 32 kA at 415 V, 13.6 kA at 440 V, and 7.5 kA at 690 V — meaning it clears high-fault currents across common distribution voltages without upstream coordination headaches. Thermal derating is minimal up to 50 °C (holds 16 A flat), then drops to 15.36 A at 55 °C and 14.4 A at 70 °C. The shunt trip (STL) auxiliary release is integrated; order the matching trip unit 3VA9688-0BL32 separately if needed.
Front IP40 rating means it's splash-protected on the panel face but not sealed for washdown environments. The 3-pole footprint matches standard SENTRON 3VA baseplates and busbar systems — retrofit into an existing 3VA cutout without drilling.
