Its 50 A rated continuous current (Iu) holds flat from 40 °C to 50 °C, then derates to 45 A at 70 °C — that thermal curve matters if the breaker sits in a warm enclosure or next to other heat sources. The TM240 release is a thermal-magnetic trip unit tuned for 240 A frame, so the 50 A rating is set by the installed trip coil, not the frame size; you can swap the release later if the load grows, but the breaker itself is a fixed 50 A line-protection version. Breaking capacity is the headline number here: 187 kA at 240 V AC, 121 kA at 415 V, 76 kA at 440 V, and 17 kA at both 500 V and 690 V. At 690 V the 17 kA figure is modest; if your system runs 690 V with fault currents above that, you need a higher-rated frame. The 800 V rated insulation voltage (Ui) means the internal clearances are designed for 800 V system voltage, so it's safe on 480/277 V and 600 V nominal systems. Mechanical endurance is 20,000 operations. IP40 front protection suits dry indoor panels.
Dimensions: 101.6 mm wide, 130 mm high, 70 mm deep. Maximum power loss is 14.6 W. The N-conductor protection is rated at 100% — meaning the neutral pole is fully rated for the same current as the phase poles, not derated. That's important for 4-wire systems where the neutral carries harmonic currents (e.g., VFD-fed loads with triplen harmonics).
