Product details

What this 400 A MCCB delivers

The 4-pole design covers three-phase plus neutral, and the shunt trip (STL) auxiliary release lets you remote-trip it from a safety circuit or E-stop chain.

At 184 mm wide, 248 mm tall, and 110 mm deep, this MCCB bolts into a standard panel footprint — no oddball cutout. The 4-pole body needs the same phase-to-phase clearance as a 3-pole unit plus neutral lug space.

Above that, it drops to 385 A at 55 °C, 370 A at 60 °C, 355 A at 65 °C, and 340 A at 70 °C. If your panel runs hot near a drive bank or transformer, size the load side accordingly. Maximum power loss is 96 W, so keep ventilation paths clear.

Frequently asked questions

How do I get current pricing and availability for 3VA2340-5HL42-0KL0?

Submit an RFQ through this listing — we source it to order and confirm price and stock at quote time.

What is 3VA2340-5HL42-0KL0's listed depth?

The depth is 110 mm.

What is 3VA2340-5HL42-0KL0's listed width?

The width is 184 mm.

Will 3VA2340-5HL42-0KL0 drop into a panel that was specified around 3VA1110-5EE32-0JA0 without rewiring?

No — the 3VA1110-5EE32-0JA0 is a smaller-frame MCCB with different mounting dimensions and a lower current rating. The 3VA2340-5HL42-0KL0 requires its own cutout and bus bar layout.

What compliance documentation does Siemens provide for 3VA2340-5HL42-0KL0?

Siemens provides RoHS, REACH, UL, and IEC declarations for the SENTRON 3VA series. Specific certificates are available on request with the RFQ.
