Product details

Three poles, rated for a maximum of 320 A, with a TM120M thermal-magnetic overcurrent release.

Breaking capacity — what it interrupts and where

Rated breaking capacity varies sharply with system voltage. At 240 V it clears 187 kA — enough for most low-voltage industrial services. That last number matters: on a 480/500 V system (common in North American and some Asian plants), the available fault current has to be coordinated with this 17 kA ceiling, or the breaker won't interrupt a high-energy fault safely. Insulation voltage is rated at 800 V, so the internal clearances are there for 690 V class systems — the limitation is the arc extinction at higher voltages, not the dielectric.

Thermal derating — continuous current vs panel temperature

Continuous current rating holds at 20 A from 40 °C through 55 °C ambient. At 60 °C it drops to 19 A, and it stays at 19 A through 70 °C.

What it doesn't have — and why that matters for your panel

This is a bare electromechanical MCCB — if you need remote signaling or a shunt trip for emergency-off circuits, you'll add external accessories or pick a different variant. The 3-pole form factor fits standard SENTRON panel-mounting footprints; dimensions are 70 mm deep, 76.2 mm wide, 130 mm high. Width is exactly 3 inches — matches the standard MCCB cell width in most distribution boards.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy 3VM1120-5MH32-0AA0?

This part is sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution channels. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time — no stock figures or lead-time numbers on the public page.

What's the breaking capacity of 3VM1120-5MH32-0AA0 at 415 V?

Rated breaking capacity at 415 V is 121 kA. At 240 V it's 187 kA; at 440 V it's 75 kA; at 500 V it's 17 kA. The 500 V figure is the coordination limit for 480 V class systems.

Does 3VM1120-5MH32-0AA0 have ground-fault protection?

No. The ground-fault monitoring version is listed as 'Without', and the product function for grounding protection is also 'No'. This is a straight thermal-magnetic breaker with no GFCI or ground-fault relay built in.
