Product details

It carries a 40 A continuous rating across the ambient range from 40 °C to 50 °C, with only a 3 A derating by 70 °C — meaning it holds its rating through most normal panel temperatures without upsizing the frame. The thermal element tracks load current over time; the magnetic element trips instantaneously on high faults. A trip indicator on the front confirms the breaker opened on a fault, not a manual switch-off — useful when you're tracing a nuisance trip on a paper-machine feeder. At 240 V it interrupts 220 kA; at 415 V, 154 kA; at 440 V, 121 kA; at 500 V and 690 V, 17 kA.

The breaker occupies a 76.2 mm wide (3 in) footprint on the DIN rail or mounting plate, 130 mm tall and 70 mm deep. The 70 mm depth (2.76 in) leaves room for rear-connected bus bars or a shallow enclosure back wall.

The auxiliary switch configuration is factory-fitted: one auxiliary contact plus one trip-alarm switch (HP type). That covers remote status feedback — breaker on/off and fault-tripped — without adding a separate accessory module.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy the 3VA1140-6EF36-0AG0 and get a price?

This part is sourced and quoted to order through independent industrial distribution. Submit an RFQ — availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time. No stock count or price is shown here because both change with volume and market conditions.

What is the breaking capacity of this MCCB at different voltages?

At 240 V it interrupts 220 kA; at 415 V, 154 kA; at 440 V, 121 kA; at 500 V and 690 V, 17 kA. The 690 V figure is the ceiling — verify available fault current at the installation point when using this breaker in a 690 V distribution section.

What compliance documentation does Siemens provide for this breaker?

The SENTRON 3VA series carries UL, CSA, and IEC certifications. RoHS and REACH compliance declarations are standard from Siemens for current-production parts. Specific documentation for this order code can be included with the shipment on request.
