Product details

It carries a continuous current of 80 A at 40 °C (derated to 74 A at 70 °C) and breaks up to 121 kA at 240 V AC — enough for high-fault utility connections or transformer secondaries. The TM240 thermal-magnetic release gives a fixed thermal pickup and magnetic trip threshold, so no adjustment dials to set; it's a fit-and-forget part for standard distribution duty.

The interrupting rating varies by system voltage: 121 kA at 240 V, 75.6 kA at 415 V, 52.5 kA at 440 V, and 11.9 kA at both 500 V and 690 V. At 240 V this breaker handles the highest fault currents found in North American commercial services; at 690 V it still clears 11.9 kA, which covers most European industrial motor circuits. Power loss runs 19.2 W at full load — negligible for panel thermal budgeting.

Three-pole construction, 76.2 mm wide (3 in), 130 mm tall, 70 mm deep. The breaker ships without a trip indicator or undervoltage release, and has no communication module — it's a plain thermal-magnetic MCCB for hardwired distribution.

Frequently asked questions

What is the breaking capacity of this breaker at 240 V?

121 kA at 240 V AC. That rating drops to 75.6 kA at 415 V, 52.5 kA at 440 V, and 11.9 kA at 500 V or 690 V.

What does the TM240 release mean?

TM240 is a fixed thermal-magnetic release: the thermal element is calibrated for 80 A continuous (at 40 °C), and the magnetic instantaneous trip is set at a fixed multiple — no field adjustment. It's a fit-and-forget design for standard line protection.

Where can I buy 3VA1180-4EF36-0AC0 and how is it quoted?

This part is sourced through independent industrial distribution channels. It is quoted to order against an RFQ; availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time. No minimum volume commitment is required for a single-line item quote.
