Product details

Rated 16 A at 40 °C ambient, it carries a TM240 thermal-magnetic trip unit — fixed thermal and magnetic settings, no adjustment needed on the line side. Breaking capacity is the headline: 75.6 kA at 240 V AC, tapering to 52.5 kA at 415 V and 32 kA at 440 V. Insulation voltage is rated 800 V, so the breaker can be applied in 480 V and 600 V class systems with margin.

Dimensions: 130 mm height, 76.2 mm width, 70 mm depth. The supplied basic switch is 3VA11963EF320AA0; the auxiliary switch configuration is 1 auxiliary + 1 trip alarm switch HP, which gives a separate alarm contact for remote trip indication. Operating range: -25 °C to 70 °C ambient, storage from -40 °C to 80 °C. Trip indicator present for local visual status.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy 3VA1196-3EF32-0AG0 and get a price?

It is sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution; availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time.

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

75.6 kA at 240 V AC, with 52.5 kA at 415 V and 32 kA at 440 V.

Will 3VA1196-3EF32-0AG0 drop into a panel specified around 3VA1110-5EF32-0AM0?

Both are 3-pole SENTRON MCCBs with similar DIN-rail footprint, but the 3VA1196-3EF32-0AG0 is a 16 A line-protection breaker with a TM240 trip unit, while the 3VA1110-5EF32-0AM0 is a 100 A frame — physical size and busbar spacing may differ; verify panel cutout and bus rating before substitution.
