Product details

The Siemens SENTRON 3VA9908-0BB16 is an undervoltage release accessory designed for the 3VA1 and 3VA20 through 3VA25 molded-case circuit breaker families. Rated for 250 V DC and consuming 2.5 W at DC maximum, it's a drop-in auxiliary that mounts into the breaker's accessory slots without extra wiring harnesses.

At 28.8 mm deep by 25.7 mm wide by 65.1 mm high, this release sits inside the 3VA breaker's accessory compartment — no extra DIN-rail footprint needed. The three accessory slots on the breaker accept this unit; stripped length of 10 mm (0.4 inches) on the control wires matches standard ferrule or direct-wire termination. Overvoltage Category III and a 4 kV surge voltage rating mean it's built for the industrial panel environment, not a clean-room bench.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy 3VA9908-0BB16 and how do I get a price?

The part is sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time.

What is 3VA9908-0BB16's depth?

28.8 mm — it fits inside the 3VA breaker's accessory compartment without adding panel depth.

Will 3VA9908-0BB16 drop into a panel specified around 5SY4140-7?

No — 5SY4140-7 is a miniature circuit breaker (MCB), not a 3VA molded-case breaker. The 3VA9908-0BB16 is an undervoltage release accessory for the 3VA family only, so it won't physically mount in a 5SY panel.

What compliance documentation does Siemens provide for this part?

Siemens SENTRON accessories carry the standard CE marking for the European market and are designed to IEC/EN 60947-2 for circuit-breaker auxiliaries. RoHS and REACH declarations are available through the standard Siemens documentation portal.
