Thermal derating and temperature range
The 80 A rating holds flat from 40 °C through 50 °C, then begins a gentle roll-off: 78 A at 55 °C, 77 A at 60 °C, 75 A at 65 °C, and 74 A at 70 °C. This is a well-behaved derating curve — only 6 A lost over a 30 °C rise — so the breaker can be applied in warm enclosures or near other heat sources without oversizing the frame. Operating ambient range is -25 °C to +70 °C; storage range is -40 °C to +80 °C.
Panel fit and dimensions
Dimensions are 130 mm height, 76.2 mm width, 70 mm depth — a standard 3-pole MCCB footprint that fits most DIN-rail or panel-mount bases in the SENTRON 3VA family. The 70 mm depth is shallow enough to clear a 200 mm deep enclosure door without interference.
