Product details

MCCB with undervoltage release for line protection

Breaking capacity is 187 kA at 240 V, 121 kA at 415 V, 75.6 kA at 440 V, and 17 kA at 500 V and 690 V — these values cover the typical fault-current ranges for 480Y/277 V and 600 V industrial services, so the breaker coordinates downstream without cascading upstream gear.

In a crowded panel with limited airflow, use the 70 °C figure for the actual load — the 160 A nameplate applies only when the enclosure ambient stays under 50 °C. Dimensions are 130 mm high, 101.6 mm wide, 70 mm deep — a standard 4-pole MCCB footprint that fits most DIN-rail or panel-mount enclosures without re-drilling.

Frequently asked questions

What breaking capacity does 3VA1116-5EF42-0BA0 deliver at 480 V?

The breaker is rated 121 kA at 415 V and 75.6 kA at 440 V; at 480 V the value sits between those figures, so it comfortably exceeds typical 480Y/277 V fault currents in most industrial services.

Where can I buy 3VA1116-5EF42-0BA0 and how is it quoted?

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

Does the 3VA1116-5EF42-0BA0 include an undervoltage release?

Yes, it has an integrated undervoltage release (UVR) that trips the breaker when supply voltage drops below the dropout threshold, eliminating the need for a separate undervoltage relay.
