Its interrupting capacity at 240 V is 330 kA, dropping to 242 kA at 415 V and 440 V, then 187 kA at 500 V, and 4.5 kA at 690 V. The 3-pole construction with an ETU340 electronic trip unit means the overcurrent release is adjustable and communicates trip status via the ETU's own interface — no separate voltage trigger or undervoltage release on this variant.
The breaker occupies 105 mm width, 181 mm height, and 86 mm depth — standard 3-pole MCCB footprint for the SENTRON 3VA2 family.
