SENTRON 3VA1196-5GF42-0AC0 — 16 A 4-Pole MCCB with TM240 Release
The interrupting ratings climb steeply with lower voltages: 187 kA at 240 V, 121 kA at 415 V, 75.6 kA at 440 V, and a 17 kA floor at 500 V and 690 V. That SCCR curve makes this breaker a strong candidate for high-fault panels where a standard MCB would not hold coordination. The thermal derating is minimal up to 55 °C (still 16 A), then drops to 15 A at 60 °C through 70 °C.
The 3VA1196-5GF42-0AC0 measures 70 mm deep, 101.6 mm wide, and 130 mm tall. It carries two auxiliary switches (HQ type) as built-in accessories. The basic switch variant is 3VA11965GF420AA0.
