Product details

The TM210 thermal-magnetic release gives it a continuous current rating of 20 A that holds flat from 40 °C through 55 °C, then derates to 19 A at 60–70 °C — useful to know if the breaker sits in a warm enclosure or next to other heat sources. Interrupting capacity is the headline here: 187 kA at 240 V AC, 121 kA at 415 V, 75.6 kA at 440 V, and 17 kA at 500 V and 690 V.

Physical footprint: 130 mm height, 101.6 mm width (4 inches), 70 mm depth. The 4-inch width is standard for a 4-pole MCCB in this class — it occupies the same DIN-rail or mounting-plate slot as other SENTRON 3VA four-pole units. The optional motor drive (listed as available) allows remote tripping or reclose in automated panels. Power loss is 12 W maximum at rated load. In a densely packed panel, that's modest but not trivial — factor it into your thermal budget if the enclosure is sealed or tightly louvered.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy the 3VA1120-5GD42-0AA0 and get a price?

This MCCB is sourced through independent distribution channels and quoted to order against an RFQ. Submit a request for quote (RFQ) to receive current availability and pricing — no stock-on-shelf figure is published here.

What is the interrupting capacity of the 3VA1120-5GD42-0AA0?

187 kA at 240 V AC, 121 kA at 415 V AC, 75.6 kA at 440 V AC, and 17 kA at both 500 V and 690 V AC. These figures apply to the full 4-pole configuration.

Will the 3VA1120-5GD42-0AA0 drop into a panel designed for the 3VA1020-3ED36-0AA0 without rewiring?

Both are 4-pole SENTRON 3VA MCCBs with the same 20 A continuous rating, so the footprint and pole configuration match. The 3VA1120-5GD42-0AA0 carries a TM210 thermal-magnetic release versus the 3VA1020-3ED36-0AA0's electronic release — verify the trip-curve coordination and any auxiliary wiring differences before swapping, but the mechanical fit and bus connections are shared across the 3VA platform.

What compliance documentation does Siemens provide for the 3VA1120-5GD42-0AA0?

Standard Siemens documentation includes CE declaration, UL listing, and IEC 60947-2 compliance. RoHS and REACH declarations are available on request through the manufacturer's support portal or your distributor.
