Product details

It carries a rated insulation voltage Ui of 800 V and delivers interrupting capacity up to 187 kA at 240 V (121 kA at 415/440 V, 75.6 kA at 500 V, 17 kA at 690 V) — numbers that define its fault-clearing muscle for high-fault applications like transformer secondaries or large motor control centers.

Ratings that drive the spec

Continuous current holds 400 A from 40 °C through 50 °C, then derates to 384 A at 55 °C, 376 A at 60 °C, 368 A at 65 °C, and 360 A at 70 °C. Mechanical endurance is listed at 15 000 operations, typical for a fixed-mounted MCCB in a switchboard. The ETU320 electronic trip unit handles overcurrent protection with adjustable settings. The basic switch part is 3VA2440-5HL32-0AA0; the integrated auxiliary trip is 3VA9688-0BL30.

Panel fit and field notes

Dimensions are 138 mm wide, 248 mm high, 110 mm deep — a 3-pole MCCB that fits standard switchboard mounting. No DIN-rail clip; these bolt directly to the panel backplate or busbar system.

Frequently asked questions

How do I get pricing and availability for 3VA2440-5HL32-0HC0?

Submit an RFQ through this listing. The part is sourced to order via independent distribution; current price and lead time are confirmed at quote time.

What is the interrupting capacity of this MCCB at different voltages?

At 240 V it interrupts 187 kA; at 415 V and 440 V, 121 kA; at 500 V, 75.6 kA; at 690 V, 17 kA.

What trip unit and accessories come with 3VA2440-5HL32-0HC0?

It ships with an ETU320 electronic trip unit, a shunt trip (STL) release for remote tripping, and two HQ auxiliary switches for status indication.

Does this MCCB drop into a panel designed for a 3VA1110-5EE32-0JA0?

No — the 3VA2440-5HL32-0HC0 is a 400 A, 3-pole frame with different dimensions and busbar spacing than the smaller 3VA1110 frame. Panel rework is required.
