Breaking capacity and thermal performance
Its interrupting capacity is the headline number: 220 kA at 240 V, 154 kA at 415 V, 121 kA at 440 V, and still 17 kA at 690 V. At 415 V the 154 kA rating covers most industrial mains where the transformer impedance alone won't limit fault current below that level. At 60 °C it derates to 15 A, same at 65 °C and 70 °C. That's a tight thermal curve — the breaker doesn't shed much capacity until you're well above typical panel ambient. The TM210 release is a thermal-magnetic trip with fixed thermal and magnetic settings, so no field adjustment for the overload pickup; you select the breaker for the load current.
The 3VA1196-6GD46-0AA0 measures 70 mm deep, 101.6 mm wide, 130 mm high — a 4-pole MCCB that fits standard Siemens SENTRON mounting footprints.
