Breaking capacity is 330 kA at 240 V, dropping to 242 kA at 415 V and 440 V, 187 kA at 500 V, and 3.7 kA at 690 V.
That simplifies panel design in warm enclosures; you don't need to oversize the breaker for a 55 °C switchroom.
The width — 105 mm — is the critical dimension for a multi-breaker lineup; verify your backpanel layout fits the 3-pole width.
