The Siemens SENTRON 3VA2010-5HN36-0JL0 is a 3-pole molded case circuit breaker rated for 100 A continuous current across the full ambient range from 40 °C to 70 °C — no derating needed up to that ceiling.
Breaking capacity — the number that decides selectivity
This breaker delivers 187 kA at 240 V, 121 kA at 415 V and 440 V, 75.6 kA at 500 V, and 3 kA at 690 V.
Auxiliary and release configuration
That means remote tripping and status feedback are built in — no separate add-on modules needed for basic remote signaling. The shunt trip allows a PLC or safety relay to force the breaker open on command, which is standard for emergency-stop circuits or remote load shedding.
