The 86 mm depth and 105 mm width fit standard MCCB panel footprints — it occupies the same 3-pole slot as other 3VA2 frame breakers, so a panel laid out for a 160 A frame accepts this unit without re-drilling the backplate or moving busbars.
The ETU340 electronic trip communicates no status over a bus — it's a standalone device, so fault pickup requires a visual check of the mechanical trip indicator (which this unit does not have) or a downstream ammeter.
This part is sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time.
330 kA at 415 V AC, which covers most industrial secondary-distribution fault levels without needing a current-limiting upstream device.
No — the 3VA2216-8HK32-0AA0 is a standalone breaker with no integrated communication or voltage-trip module.
