Product details

The continuous current derating curve is published: 80 A from 40 °C through 50 °C, then 78 A at 55 °C, 77 A at 60 °C, 75 A at 65 °C, and 74 A at 70 °C. The interrupting capacity drops sharply as voltage rises: 187 kA at 240 V, 121 kA at 415 V, 75.6 kA at 440 V, and 17 kA at 500 V and 690 V. For a 480 V system (common in North America), you'd interpolate between the 440 V and 500 V figures; the 75.6 kA at 440 V gives headroom for most industrial services.

Integrated auxiliaries and release

This variant comes factory-fitted with two auxiliary switches (HQ type) and an undervoltage release (UVR). The auxiliary switches give status feedback — open/closed position — to a PLC or status lamp without needing an add-on block. The base switch itself is the 3VA11805EF320AA0, so this is a pre-configured assembly, not a field-modified unit.

Width at 76.2 mm is exactly 3 inches, so it occupies three 25 mm DIN-rail modules. The breaker mounts via the standard DIN rail clip; no special adapter needed.

Maximum power loss is 21.7 W at full rated current. That's the heat the breaker dumps into the panel. In a tightly packed enclosure with multiple breakers, that heat adds up — make sure your ventilation or cooling can handle it, especially if the breaker is running near its 70 °C operating limit.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy 3VA1180-5EF32-0BC0 and how do I get a price?

We source this breaker to order against an RFQ. Submit a request and we'll confirm availability and current pricing at quote time — no runaround, just a straight answer.

What are the key ratings for 3VA1180-5EF32-0BC0?

Rated 80 A continuous at 40 °C, 3-pole, with an interrupting capacity of 187 kA at 240 V AC. It includes two auxiliary switches and an undervoltage release.

What is the depth of 3VA1180-5EF32-0BC0?

The depth is 70 mm (2.76 inches), which is the critical dimension for shallow enclosure fit.
