Product details

The interrupting capacity tells you where it can go: 187 kA at 240 V, 121 kA at 415 V and 440 V, 75.6 kA at 500 V, and 4.5 kA at 690 V. At 690 V the interrupting drops to 4.5 kA, which still covers most industrial motor-circuit faults at that voltage level.

The UVR means the breaker trips when control voltage drops — standard for emergency-stop circuits or undervoltage protection on motor feeders. No communication module on this one, so it's a straight electromechanical breaker; no Modbus or PROFIBUS gateway inside. The trip indicator (a mechanical flag on the front) gives a quick visual that the breaker tripped on a fault versus being manually switched off — saves a walk to the panel when you're on the floor.

Frequently asked questions

What is the interrupting capacity of this breaker at 240 V?

187 kA at 240 V, which is a very high interrupting rating — suitable for installation directly downstream of a large transformer without needing a current-limiting fuse.

Does this MCCB include an undervoltage release?

Yes, it ships with an undervoltage release (UVR) fitted, plus 2 auxiliary switches and 1 trip alarm switch (HQ type).

Where can I buy 3VA2216-5HL32-0BH0 and get current pricing?
