Its interrupting capacity hits 330 kA at 240 V, 242 kA at 415 V and 440 V, 187 kA at 500 V, and 3.7 kA at 690 V — so it clears high-fault scenarios at the lower voltages common in industrial switchgear, while still handling the reduced duty at 690 V. That thermal stability comes from the electronic trip design; a thermal-magnetic breaker would typically need a derate factor above 40 °C.
Power loss is a modest 1.6 W maximum, so heat buildup in a dense row of breakers stays manageable.
This MCCB is sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution channels. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time.
The interrupting capacity is 242 kA at 415 V.
It uses the ETU320 electronic overcurrent release, which provides adjustable protection curves without thermal drift across the ambient range.
