Product details

Interrupting capacity is the headline here: 440 kA at 240 V, 330 kA at 415 V and 440 V, 220 kA at 500 V, and 52.5 kA at 690 V. That puts this breaker in the high-fault tier — suitable for main or feeder positions where available fault current exceeds what a standard MCCB can clear.

Integration notes — panel fit and wiring

The 86 mm depth matters when you're laying out a shallow backpanel or a gland-plate clearance. At 140 mm wide, it occupies three standard 45 mm module positions on a DIN rail — verify your rail length if you're swapping into an existing assembly. The 40 A rating is continuous at any temperature in that operating range, so no summer derating worry.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy 3VA2140-8HN42-0AA0 and what is the lead time?

This breaker is sourced to order against an RFQ through independent distribution. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time — submit an RFQ for your quantity and delivery needs.

What is the interrupting capacity of 3VA2140-8HN42-0AA0 at different voltages?

440 kA at 240 V, 330 kA at 415 V and 440 V, 220 kA at 500 V, and 52.5 kA at 690 V. These are the symmetrical RMS values — high enough for most main breaker applications.

Does 3VA2140-8HN42-0AA0 have adjustable neutral protection?

Yes, the N-conductor protection is adjustable via the ETU350 trip unit — can be set to OFF (no neutral protection) or 100% (full neutral protection). This is set during commissioning.
