Product details

The TM120M thermal-magnetic release gives a fixed thermal trip at 80 A and a magnetic short-circuit pickup tuned for motor inrush, so it holds through starting current but clears a bolted fault fast.

This MCCB carries a 187 kA interrupting rating at 240 V, 121 kA at 415 V, and 75.6 kA at 440 V. Those are high numbers — it's a current-limiting breaker designed to handle severe fault conditions on the line side of a motor starter. At 500 V and 690 V the rating drops to 7.5 kA, so it's still usable on 480/600 V systems but only where the available fault current stays under that threshold.

Above that it derates: 78 A at 55 °C, 77 A at 60 °C, 75 A at 65 °C, and 74 A at 70 °C.

The 3VA1180-5MH32-0AA0 measures 130 mm high, 76.2 mm wide, and 70 mm deep — a compact 3-pole footprint that fits standard SENTRON panel layouts.

Frequently asked questions

What is the interrupting rating of 3VA1180-5MH32-0AA0 at 480 V?

At 440 V it's rated 75.6 kA; at 500 V it drops to 7.5 kA. For a 480 V system, use the 440 V figure as a conservative guide — the breaker will handle 75.6 kA at that voltage level.

How do I get pricing and availability for 3VA1180-5MH32-0AA0?

Submit an RFQ through the storefront. Current pricing and stock levels are confirmed at quote time — this is a standard active part sourced through Siemens distribution.

What does TM120M mean on this breaker?

TM120M is the overcurrent release designation: thermal-magnetic, fixed thermal rating of 80 A, magnetic pickup set for motor starting duty. The 'M' suffix indicates it's the starter-protection version, not the standard distribution release.

What compliance documentation is available for this MCCB?

As a Siemens SENTRON product, it carries UL, CSA, and IEC certifications standard for the 3VA family. Specific RoHS and REACH declarations are available through Siemens documentation — the part is designed for global industrial panel use.
