The Siemens SENTRON 3VA1180-6EF32-0JC0 is a 3-pole molded case circuit breaker rated 80 A at 40 °C, with a short-circuit breaking capacity of 220 kA at 240 VAC — enough to handle high-fault utility feeds or transformer secondaries without cascading upstream. Rated current holds at 80 A from 40 °C through 50 °C ambient, then derates gradually to 74 A at 70 °C (-). This variant is configured for line protection and includes a shunt trip release (STL) plus two HQ auxiliary switches. The shunt trip allows remote tripping via a control signal — useful for emergency-stop circuits or interlocking with upstream gear.
At 76.2 mm wide, 130 mm tall, and 70 mm deep (-), the 3VA1180-6EF32-0JC0 fits the standard SENTRON 3VA frame footprint. It mounts directly to a DIN rail or panel-mount baseplate — no adapter needed.
