Product details

The Siemens SENTRON 3VA1340-4EF32-0DH0 is a 3-pole molded case circuit breaker rated 400 A at 40 °C, with a breaking capacity of 121 kA at 240 V AC. At 415 V it still holds 75.6 kA, and at 690 V it's 11.9 kA, so the SCCR headroom drops fast as voltage climbs; verify your point-of-fault voltage before assuming the top number applies.

The TM240 overcurrent release is a thermal-magnetic type — thermal element handles overloads (slow trip, inverse-time curve), magnetic element handles short-circuits (instantaneous). The '240' in TM240 refers to the frame size or release rating, not the amp rating; the actual continuous current is 400 A at 40 °C ambient. That 400 A holds steady up to 50 °C, then derates to 392 A at 55 °C and 367 A at 70 °C. That means if control voltage drops below the dropout threshold, the breaker trips instantly. Useful for emergency-stop circuits or undervoltage protection on motor feeders, but it also means a momentary brownout on the control bus will drop the main. The width is 138 mm for a 3-pole unit; a 4-pole version would be wider. Mounting is standard for SENTRON 3VA frames, so it fits the same panel cutouts and busbar adapters as other breakers in this family.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy 3VA1340-4EF32-0DH0 and how do I get a price?

This part is sourced to order against an RFQ through independent distribution. Submit a request for quote to confirm current availability and pricing — no stock count or price is published here.

What is the breaking capacity of this MCCB at different voltages?

At 240 V AC it's 121 kA, at 415 V and 440 V it's 75.6 kA, at 500 V it's 52.5 kA, and at 690 V it drops to 11.9 kA. The interrupting rating depends on the system voltage at the fault point.

What compliance documentation does this brand provide for 3VA1340-4EF32-0DH0?

Siemens SENTRON breakers typically carry UL, CSA, CE, and IEC certifications, and RoHS/REACH compliance declarations are available from the manufacturer. Specific certs for this order code should be confirmed against the nameplate or the Siemens declaration of conformity.
