Product details

What this 4-pole MCCB delivers

The 86 mm depth, 140 mm width, and 181 mm height fit the standard SENTRON 3VA panel footprint, so it drops into existing 3VA-based switchboards without re-drilling gland plates or re-laying bus bars. The IP40 front protection suits indoor panel mounting where splash and dust ingress are controlled by the enclosure.

At 415 V, this MCCB interrupts 440 kA — a rating that places it in the high-breaking-capacity tier of the SENTRON 3VA family. At 690 V, the breaking capacity drops to 187 kA, still sufficient for most 690 V motor-control-center feeds. The ETU850 electronic trip allows adjustable N-conductor protection (off, 40% to 160% of the phase setting), which is a practical feature for 4-wire distribution where neutral protection must be coordinated with phase protection.

The 140 mm width occupies four 35 mm module spaces on a DIN rail, typical for a 4-pole MCCB. Bus-bar connection is via the front-access terminals; the ETU850 trip unit is field-replaceable without removing the breaker from the panel. The communication function (listed as present) allows integration with higher-level monitoring systems, though the specific protocol is not detailed in this listing.

Frequently asked questions

What trip unit does this breaker use?

It uses the ETU850 electronic trip unit, which provides adjustable N-conductor protection (off, 40% to 160%) and is field-replaceable. The trip unit is part of the SENTRON 3VA family's electronic release range.
