Its 200 A rated continuous current Iu holds flat from 40 °C through 50 °C, then derates to 194 A at 55 °C, 188 A at 60 °C, 182 A at 65 °C, and 176 A at 70 °C — so the thermal curve matters if the breaker sits in a hot enclosure or next to other heat sources. The 121 kA interrupting rating at 240 V drops to 75.6 kA at 415 V, 25 kA at 440 V, and 11.9 kA at 690 V; that steep voltage-dependent curve means the available fault current at your service voltage is the number that governs selectivity and SCCR compliance, not the headline 121 kA figure. The TM240 overcurrent release is a thermal-magnetic type — fixed thermal pickup, magnetic trip adjustable. The 1 s adjustable time delay tr max. lets you coordinate downstream with smaller breakers or fuses. The 3-pole construction with 1 auxiliary switch + 1 trip alarm switch HP gives remote status for both breaker position and fault trip, which is useful for PLC or SCADA inputs without an add-on module.
The auxiliary and trip alarm switch wiring exits the breaker body; plan for 1.5 mm² stranded connections per the terminal markings.
What it does not include
If you need remote trip, ground fault, or metering, you step up to the 3VA2 electronic-trip variants or add external accessories.
