The 3-pole frame breaks fault currents up to 121 kA at 240 V, 75.6 kA at 415 V, 52.5 kA at 440 V, and 11.9 kA at 690 V, which covers the interrupting range for most 400 V distribution panels feeding downstream sub-distribution or fixed loads. The 70 mm depth and 76.2 mm width fit the standard SENTRON 3VA panel footprint — same cutout and bus-bar spacing as the rest of the 3VA family — so it drops into an existing SENTRON-based distribution board without re-drilling the mounting plate or re-spacing the bus bars.
At 55 °C it steps to 38.4 A, and at 70 °C it reaches 36 A, a 10 % reduction from the nameplate.
The trip alarm switch signals a fault trip separately from the aux contacts, which is useful for remote annunciation in a PLC input. The auxiliary trip module is order code 3VA9608-0BB11, a separate line item if the factory-fitted block ever needs replacement.
