Product details

What this 40 A MCCB does on the line

At 415 V the rating drops to 75.6 kA, and at 690 V to 11.9 kA, so the SCCR coordination study needs to check the actual line voltage before committing this breaker to a branch. The UVR coil drops the breaker when supply voltage falls below a threshold, which is useful for preventing automatic restart after a brownout on machinery that requires supervised restart. No communication function, no phase failure detection, and no ground fault monitoring are built in; those would need external modules or a different variant.

Above that it derates: 38.4 A at 55 °C, 37.6 A at 60 °C, 36.8 A at 65 °C, and 36 A at 70 °C.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy 3VA1140-4EF32-0CH0?

This 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 position.

What is the breaking capacity of 3VA1140-4EF32-0CH0 at different voltages?

121 kA at 240 V, 75.6 kA at 415 V, 52.5 kA at 440 V, and 11.9 kA at 690 V. The interrupting rating decreases as voltage increases, which is typical for MCCBs.

Does 3VA1140-4EF32-0CH0 include an undervoltage release?

Yes, it includes an undervoltage release (UVR) as the auxiliary release. The design of the overcurrent release is TM240.
