Product details

The ETU320 trip unit allows the long-time pickup to be set between 375 A and 2500 A, covering a wide range of feeder and main breaker applications.

This MCCB carries a 440 kA interrupting rating at 240 V AC, dropping to 330 kA at 415 V and 440 V, 220 kA at 500 V, and 52.5 kA at 690 V. The 440 kA at 240 V is typical for high-fault-capacity service-entrance or large-feeder positions in North American 277/480 V panels where the line-to-neutral fault can exceed 200 kA.

Above that, it derates linearly: 241 A at 55 °C, 232 A at 60 °C, 222 A at 65 °C, and 213 A at 70 °C. The front face carries an IP40 protection rating — suitable for dry indoor panels but not washdown environments.

The 4-pole width (140 mm) is the same as other 4-pole 3VA2 frames, so a panel drilled for a 3VA2 250 A frame accepts this unit without rework.
