Product details

The shunt trip release (STL) is built in, part number 3VA9688-0BL30, so you get remote-trip capability without an add-on module.

Breaking capacity is rated at 187 kA at 240 V AC, 121 kA at 415 V, 30 kA at 440 V, and 17 kA at 690 V. For a 415 V industrial feeder, the 121 kA figure gives substantial headroom for high-fault panels (typical utility fault levels are 25–65 kA). At 690 V the 17 kA rating still covers most motor-drive applications. Selectivity with downstream breakers is easier to achieve when the upstream device has this kind of margin.

Above that it derates: 153.6 A at 55 °C, 150.4 A at 60 °C, 147.2 A at 65 °C, and 144 A at 70 °C. The IP40 front protection means it's fine in a clean indoor panel; no washdown rating.

Dimensions are 105 mm wide, 158 mm high, 70 mm deep.
