The N-conductor protection is adjustable from OFF to 20%–160% of the phase setting, giving flexibility for 4-pole applications where the neutral needs its own overload curve. Communication function is onboard, so it can talk to a BMS or SCADA via the SENTRON bus system.
Dimensions are 105 mm wide, 181 mm high, 86 mm deep — a standard 3-pole MCCB footprint for the 3VA2 frame. No special cutout or adapter required for a standard Siemens MCCB mounting base.
This part is sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time.
The breaking capacity is 440 kA at 415 V and 187 kA at 690 V, making it suitable for high-fault-current main breakers.
Yes, the circuit breaker includes a communication function for integration with a BMS or SCADA system via the SENTRON bus.
