Product details

That 8 A holds at 45 °C and 50 °C; derate to 7.04 A at 70 °C if the panel runs hot. Interrupting capacity is the headline: 187 kA at 240 V, 121 kA at 415 V, 75.6 kA at 440 V, dropping to 7.5 kA at 500 V and 690 V. That's a lot of fault current headroom for a 8 A frame — it'll clear a high-energy arc flash without the breaker venting into the enclosure.

TM110M release — what the li setting means

The overcurrent release is a TM110M — a thermal-magnetic unit with a fixed short-circuit pickup (li) at 128 A, both minimum and maximum. That's 16× the 8 A continuous rating, so it's a magnetic-only instantaneous trip at that level; the thermal bimetal handles overloads on the inverse-time curve.

Panel fit and physical constraints

Dimensions are 130 mm high, 76.2 mm wide, 70 mm deep — a compact 3-pole footprint. IP40 on the front face only. Insulation voltage rated 800 V. Power loss is 2.4 W max.

Lifecycle status is current — no discontinuation notice. It's a standard catalog item, not a last-time-buy or NRND part.

Frequently asked questions

Will 3VA1108-5MG36-0AA0 drop into a panel specified for 3VA1110-5MH36-0AA0 without rewiring?

Same SENTRON 3VA frame family, so the physical footprint (130 mm × 76.2 mm × 70 mm) and mounting pattern are identical — no rewiring needed for the enclosure fit. The difference is the continuous current rating: 8 A on this unit versus the higher rating on the 3VA1110 variant, so verify the load current before swapping.
