Product details

The Siemens SENTRON 3VA1440-6MH32-0AA0 is a 3-pole molded case circuit breaker rated for 400 A continuous current at 40 °C to 50 °C ambient, with a TM120M thermal-magnetic overcurrent release. Its interrupting capacity hits 220 kA at 240 VAC, 154 kA at 415 V and 440 V, 121 kA at 500 V, and 17 kA at 690 V — so it handles high-fault utility feeds and transformer secondaries without cascading upstream. Designed as a starter protector, it's a fit for motor branch circuits where you need coordinated short-circuit and overload protection in one package. If your spec calls for those, you add external accessories or choose a different variant. The absence of a trip indicator means you'll need a panel meter or status lamp to confirm the breaker state remotely.

Thermal derating — what the numbers mean

At 55 °C it's 392 A, at 60 °C it's 384 A, at 65 °C it's 376 A, and at 70 °C it's 367 A (–). Max power loss is 76.8 W — that heat has to leave the panel, so don't bury it in a sealed box without ventilation.

Panel fit

The 3-pole footprint is compact for a 400 A MCCB; check your gland plate and busbar spacing before committing the cutout. No communication function means no auxiliary wiring for remote monitoring unless you add an external accessory.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy 3VA1440-6MH32-0AA0 and get current pricing?

We source this part to order against an RFQ through independent distribution. Submit a request for quote; availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time.

What are the interrupting ratings for 3VA1440-6MH32-0AA0 at different voltages?

At 240 V it's 220 kA, at 415 V and 440 V it's 154 kA, at 500 V it's 121 kA, and at 690 V it's 17 kA (–).

What is the continuous current rating of 3VA1440-6MH32-0AA0?

400 A continuous from 40 °C to 50 °C ambient (–). It derates to 367 A at 70 °C.

What overcurrent release does 3VA1440-6MH32-0AA0 use?

It uses a TM120M thermal-magnetic release. That's a fixed-trip unit — no interchangeable rating plugs.
