Product details

The 3-pole design and IP40 front protection suit it for enclosed switchboards and distribution panels where the front face is behind a door.

Breaking capacity and thermal performance

At 415 V the 3VA2116-0KP32-0AA0 delivers 440 kA breaking capacity; at 690 V that drops to 187 kA — still well above typical industrial service-entrance requirements. Maximum power loss is 19.7 W, which keeps internal cabinet heat manageable.

The ETU850 trip unit includes communication functionality and other measurement functions, so it can feed data back to a BMS or PLC without an add-on module.
