Product details

Its breaking capacity reaches 220 kA at 240 V, 154 kA at 415 V, and 121 kA at 440 V — figures that place it in the high-interrupting category for industrial distribution panels where fault current levels are substantial.

At 415 V the 154 kA interrupting rating gives headroom for high-fault installations — common in industrial mains where transformer impedance is low. The 690 V rating drops to 17 kA, which still covers most motor branch circuits at that voltage.

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. If the panel runs hot — near a drive or transformer — factor the derating into the load calculation.

Frequently asked questions

What is the breaking capacity of this MCCB at 415 V?

At 415 V the interrupting rating is 154 kA, suitable for high-fault industrial mains.

Where can I buy the 3VA1140-6EF36-0AD0?

This part is sourced to order against an RFQ through independent distribution channels. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time.

What does the TM240 release designation mean?

TM240 indicates a thermal-magnetic release with a fixed 40 A continuous rating — no field adjustment of the thermal element.
