Product details

Rated 32 A continuously at 40 °C ambient, it derates to 30 A at 70 °C — a curve worth noting if the breaker sits in a warm enclosure or next to other heat sources. Short-circuit breaking capacity is the headline here: 220 kA at 240 V, 154 kA at 415 V, 121 kA at 440 V, and 17 kA at both 500 V and 690 V. Rated insulation voltage is 800 V, so the breaker is comfortable on 480 V and 600 V class systems with margin. The shunt trip release (STL) means you can wire a remote emergency-stop or supervisory signal to open the breaker without being at the handle — common in E-stop circuits or PLC-controlled load shedding.

The 32 A rating holds flat from 40 °C through 50 °C. At 55 °C it drops to 31 A, and at 70 °C it is 30 A. If the panel ambient runs hot — say 50 °C inside a NEMA 12 enclosure with other devices — you still get the full 32 A. Above that, plan the load at 30 A to avoid nuisance tripping. Power loss is 10.6 W maximum at rated current.

Dimensions are 70 mm deep, 76.2 mm wide, 130 mm tall. The 76.2 mm width is a standard 3-pole MCCB footprint for this class — it fits the same DIN-rail or panel-mount cutout as other SENTRON 3VA frame breakers. Operating temperature range is -25 °C to 70 °C; storage range is -40 °C to 80 °C. That covers unheated warehouses and outdoor enclosures in most climates.

Frequently asked questions

What is the short-circuit breaking capacity of this MCCB?

220 kA at 240 V, 154 kA at 415 V, 121 kA at 440 V, and 17 kA at both 500 V and 690 V. The very high SCCR at lower voltages is the standout spec.

What does the shunt trip (STL) release do on this breaker?

The shunt trip allows remote opening of the breaker via a voltage signal — common for emergency-stop circuits, PLC-based load shedding, or supervisory control. It is an auxiliary release, not a standard overcurrent trip.
