Siemens 3VA1150-4EF32-0AH0 — SENTRON MCCB, 50 A, 121 kA IC
Rated current holds flat at 50 A from 40 °C through 50 °C ambient; it starts to derate above that — 49 A at 55 °C, 48 A at 60 °C, down to 45 A at 70 °C. That thermal curve matters for enclosed panels with limited airflow. Interrupting capacity drops with system voltage: 75.6 kA at 415 V, 52.5 kA at 440 V, 11.9 kA at 500 V and 690 V. The 121 kA at 240 V is the peak — typical for a 240/120 V delta or 277/480 V wye service entrance where the available fault current is high.
Integration — Panel Fit and Mounting
The 3VA1150-4EF32-0AH0 measures 70 mm deep, 76.2 mm wide, 130 mm tall — a standard MCCB footprint for DIN-rail or panel-mount installation in a distribution board. The 76.2 mm width (3 inches) is the pole pitch for a 3-pole breaker; it occupies three 1-inch module spaces on the rail.
