Rated 500 A continuously at ambient temperatures up to 50 °C without derating; above that, the thermal capacity steps down per the datasheet: 495 A at 55 °C, 490 A at 60 °C, 485 A at 65 °C, and 480 A at 70 °C. For a panel that runs warm — say, adjacent to drives or transformers — the 55 °C derating is the first threshold to check against your motor FLA. Interrupting capacity is substantial at the lower voltage tiers: 187 kA at 240 V, 121 kA at 415 V and 440 V, 75.6 kA at 500 V, and 9 kA at 690 V.
Footprint is 138 mm wide by 248 mm tall by 110 mm deep — a 3-pole frame that fits standard MCCB panel cutouts. The depth of 110 mm (4.33 in) is the dimension from the mounting surface to the front of the breaker; verify clearance for the shunt trip (STL) and the two HQ auxiliary switches that come fitted on this variant. Maximum power loss is 99 W at rated load — that heat has to be managed inside the enclosure. For a sealed panel with multiple breakers ganged, factor the dissipation into your thermal budget.
