Product details

What this MCCB delivers

Breaking capacity hits 121 kA at 240 V AC and 75.6 kA at 415 V AC — enough headroom for high-fault utility feeds or transformer secondaries without cascading upstream breakers. At 690 V it still interrupts 11.9 kA, covering most industrial motor circuits. Auxiliary contacts include two auxiliary switches plus one trip-alarm switch (HQ), giving the panel builder feedback on breaker position and fault state without adding external relays. Trip indicator confirms the breaker opened on overload or short circuit, not manual operation.

The derating table above 55 °C (39 A at 55 °C, 38 A at 65 °C) is the real-world limit; don't size the breaker at 40 A if the panel ambient exceeds 50 °C.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy 3VA1140-4EF32-0BH0 and how do I get a price?

The part is sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time — submit an RFQ for a firm price and lead time.

What is 3VA1140-4EF32-0BH0's listed depth?

The body depth is 70 mm (2.76 in). Allow additional clearance behind the panel for the undervoltage release and auxiliary switch wiring.

What is 3VA1140-4EF32-0BH0's rated breaking capacity at 240 V?

At 240 V AC the breaking capacity is 121 kA. At 415 V AC it is 75.6 kA, and at 690 V AC it is 11.9 kA.

Does 3VA1140-4EF32-0BH0 include an undervoltage release?

Yes, it is equipped with an undervoltage release (UVR) that trips the breaker when line voltage drops below the release threshold. The auxiliary switch configuration is two auxiliary switches plus one trip-alarm switch (HQ).
