Product details

The Siemens SENTRON 3VA2340-5KP32-0HC0 is a 3-pole molded case circuit breaker rated for 400 A continuous current (Iu) at up to 50 °C ambient — no derating needed in a typical 40 °C panel. Above 50 °C it steps down: 375 A at 55 °C, 350 A at 60 °C, 325 A at 65 °C, and 300 A at 70 °C. Breaking capacity is the headline: 187 kA at 240 V, 121 kA at 415 V and 440 V, 75.6 kA at 500 V, and 17 kA at 690 V. The ETU850 electronic trip unit provides line protection with communication capability (the order code suffix -0HC0 includes the communication function).

The basic switch (the breaker without the electronic trip) is order code 3VA2340-5KP32-0AA0; the integrated auxiliary trip is 3VA9688-0BL30. Those are the sub-assembly references if you ever need to replace just the trip unit or the switch body separately.

Dimensions: 138 mm wide, 248 mm high, 110 mm deep. Maximum power loss is 96 W at rated current.
