Breaking capacity is 242 kA at 240 V AC, 187 kA at 415/440 V, 121 kA at 500 V, and 3.7 kA at 690 V.
The 105 mm width is standard for a 3-pole SENTRON 3VA2 frame — it fits the same DIN-rail or panel-mount footprint as other 3VA2 breakers, so a panel laid out for a 3VA2 accepts this unit without re-drilling.
242 kA at 240 V AC, with 187 kA at 415/440 V, 121 kA at 500 V, and 3.7 kA at 690 V.
This part is sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time.
Yes, it is equipped with a shunt trip release (STL) for remote tripping, plus 2 auxiliary switches and 1 trip alarm switch.
