Product details

400 A MCCB with voltage-graded SCCR

Its interrupting capacity scales with system voltage: 121 kA at 240 V, 75.6 kA at 415 V and 440 V, 52.5 kA at 500 V, and 11.9 kA at 690 V — so the same unit handles both 480 V distribution and 600 V class motor branch circuits, as long as the available fault current at the panelboard stays under the curve.

Auxiliary releases and trip indication

The UVR drops the breaker when control voltage falls below the dropout threshold — standard for emergency-stop chains or undervoltage protection on motor feeders. The trip indicator gives a local visual flag; the alarm switch closes on fault trip, not manual switching, so a PLC or annunciator can distinguish a trip from a planned open.

Active lifecycle — no end-of-life watch needed

The 3VA1340-4GF42-0DH0 carries a current lifecycle status from Siemens. No last-time-buy or successor notice is in effect.

Dimensions are 248 mm high, 184 mm wide, 110 mm deep — a standard 4-pole MCCB footprint for 400 A frames. Maximum power dissipation is 94.6 W; account for that heat in the enclosure thermal calculation, especially if the panel also houses drives or transformers.
