Product Identity and Key Ratings
The 3VA2340-6JP32-0DL0: Breaking capacity varies with voltage: 242 kA at 240 V, 187 kA at 415 V and 440 V, 121 kA at 500 V, and 7.5 kA at 690 V. These figures define the fault-current interruption capability at each voltage level — critical for coordination studies. Thermal derating applies above 50 °C: the breaker holds 400 A up to 50 °C, then drops to 375 A at 55 °C, 350 A at 60 °C, 325 A at 65 °C, and 300 A at 70 °C. Ambient temperature in the enclosure must be factored into the continuous load calculation.
Auxiliary and Communication Features
This variant includes a communication function, an undervoltage release (UVR), and a complement of auxiliary switches: 2 auxiliary switches, 1 trip alarm switch, and 1 electrical alarm switch (HQ design). The trip indicator is present, and there is no voltage trigger or ground-fault monitoring.
Dimensions and Mounting
Dimensions are 248 mm height, 138 mm width, and 110 mm depth (9.76 × 5.43 × 4.33 in). The MCCB mounts on a DIN rail or panel — typical for SENTRON switchgear assemblies.
