Product details

400 A continuous, flat derating curve to 70 °C

The Siemens SENTRON 3VA2440-6HN32-0BA0 is a 3-pole molded case circuit breaker (MCCB) rated for 400 A continuous across the full 40 °C to 70 °C ambient range — no derating needed up to that ceiling. That means it holds its full 400 A in a warm panel without bumping frame size. Breaking capacity hits 242 kA at 240 V, 187 kA at 415 V, and still 121 kA at 500 V — high enough for most industrial main feeders and large motor branch circuits.

Undervoltage release fitted, no auxiliary switch

No auxiliary switch is included; if you need status feedback to a PLC, plan for a separate aux block. The footprint is 110 mm deep, 138 mm wide, 248 mm tall — a standard SENTRON 3VA fixed-panel mount. Power loss is rated at 66 W maximum.

Frequently asked questions

What is the breaking capacity of this circuit breaker?

242 kA at 240 V, 187 kA at 415 V, 187 kA at 440 V, 121 kA at 500 V, and 9 kA at 690 V. The 4 800 A maximum/minimum rating is the frame limit, not the continuous load.
