This breaker is rated to interrupt 187 kA at 240 V, 121 kA at 415 V and 440 V, 75.6 kA at 500 V, and 3.7 kA at 690 V. Those are the maximum fault currents it can safely clear at each voltage level. At 690 V the 3.7 kA rating is lower — verify your system's prospective short-circuit current at that voltage before committing the BOM line.
In a cement plant or any dusty environment, plan for an enclosure that keeps airborne grit off the breaker face.
