Product details

SENTRON 3VM1096-4ED32-0AA0 — Line Protection MCCB

The Siemens SENTRON 3VM1096-4ED32-0AA0 is a 3-pole molded case circuit breaker rated 16 A continuous at 40 °C, with a TM210 thermal-magnetic overcurrent release designed for line protection in distribution panels.

At 440 V the breaker clears 40 kA; at 500 V it still holds 12 kA — this derating curve matters when the panel feeds a 480 V motor control center and the fault current at the bus exceeds 10 kA.

Thermal Derating and Ambient

Continuous current holds at 16 A from 40 °C up to 55 °C, then drops to 15 A at 60 °C and 14 A at 70 °C — a shallow derating curve that keeps the breaker usable in crowded enclosures without oversizing the frame. Maximum power loss is 11 W per pole, which adds up to 33 W total in a three-pole block — factor that into the enclosure thermal budget when grouping several breakers.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy 3VM1096-4ED32-0AA0 and how do I get a price?

This part is sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution. Submit an RFQ for current pricing and availability.

What is the interrupting capacity of this MCCB at 240 V?

It clears 121 kA at 240 V AC, with 76 kA at 415 V, 40 kA at 440 V, and 12 kA at 500 V.

What is the continuous current rating at elevated ambient temperatures?

Rated 16 A from 40 °C to 55 °C, then derates to 15 A at 60 °C and 14 A at 65–70 °C.

What compliance documentation does this brand provide for 3VM1096-4ED32-0AA0?

As a SENTRON product, it carries the standard Siemens declarations for RoHS and REACH compliance; UL and IEC certifications are typical for the series but specific marks should be verified from the nameplate or manufacturer documentation.
