Product details

The Siemens SENTRON 3VM1132-4EE46-0AA2 is a 4-pole molded case circuit breaker (MCCB) in the SENTRON family, rated for 32 A continuous current at 40 °C through 50 °C, with a TM220 thermal-magnetic overcurrent release providing LI (long-time and instantaneous) protection. At 415 V the rating drops to 76 kA, and at 500 V to 11.9 kA, which still covers most industrial secondary-distribution faults. The 690 V rated insulation voltage (Ui) means the breaker's internal clearances and creepage are designed for 690 V systems, even though the maximum operating voltage is 500 V AC.

The 32 A rating holds flat from 40 °C to 50 °C, then derates to 31 A at 55 °C and 30 A at 70 °C. That's a gentle slope — you don't lose headroom until the panel ambient pushes past 50 °C. Front connection via box terminals (IP40 on the front face) means the breaker mounts cleanly in a distribution panel with the busbars or cables landing on the front lugs. No auxiliary contacts are fitted (0 CO contacts), and there's no provision for a motor drive or neutral conductor protection — this is a straight line-protection device, not a switch-disconnector with add-ons.

Frequently asked questions

What is the interrupting capacity of 3VM1132-4EE46-0AA2 at 240 V and 415 V?

At 240 V the breaker is rated for 121 kA; at 415 V it's 76 kA, and at 500 V it's 11.9 kA.

What does the TM220 release and LI protection mean on this MCCB?

TM220 is a thermal-magnetic release with LI characteristics — long-time (thermal) protection against sustained overloads and instantaneous (magnetic) protection against short circuits. No electronic adjustment or ground-fault monitoring is included.

Where can I buy 3VM1132-4EE46-0AA2 and get current pricing?
