Product details

Line protection MCCB with 75.6 kA interrupting capacity

Its interrupting capacity hits 75.6 kA at 240 V, 52.5 kA at 415 V, and 32 kA at 440 V — enough to clear high-fault feeds without cascading upstream. The TM210 thermal-magnetic release handles overload and short-circuit trip curves; a factory-integrated shunt trip (STL) allows remote emergency-off or undervoltage disconnection via the 3VA9688-0BL33 auxiliary trip module.

Carries the full 16 A up to 50 °C ambient; above that it derates linearly to 14.4 A at 70 °C — a useful curve for hot enclosures or furnace-side installations where the breaker shares space with heat-generating gear. IP40 on the front means it tolerates tool contact but not washdown.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy 3VA1096-3ED32-0KA0?

This part is sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution; availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time.

What is the interrupting capacity of this MCCB at different voltages?

75.6 kA at 240 V, 52.5 kA at 415 V, 32 kA at 440 V, and 7.5 kA at 690 V — the high 240 V figure suits North American 277/480 V panel feeds where fault current can exceed 50 kA.

Does 3VA1096-3ED32-0KA0 include a shunt trip?

Yes, it is equipped with a shunt trip (STL) release designed for the 3VA9688-0BL33 auxiliary trip module, enabling remote tripping for emergency stop or undervoltage protection.

What is the thermal derating curve for this breaker?

Full 16 A from 40 °C to 50 °C, then derates to 15.36 A at 55 °C, 15.04 A at 60 °C, 14.72 A at 65 °C, and 14.4 A at 70 °C — plan for a 10 % headroom loss if the breaker sits in a 70 °C enclosure.
