Product details

Line protection MCCB with TM220 release

The Siemens SENTRON 3VM1180-3GE42-0AA0 is a 4-pole molded case circuit breaker (MCCB) rated for line protection, carrying 80 A continuously up to 50 °C ambient and derating to 74 A at 70 °C — the full thermal curve means no guesswork when the panel runs hot. Breaking capacity climbs with voltage: 76 kA at 240 V AC, 53 kA at 415 V, 32 kA at 440 V, and 12 kA at 500 V — that spread covers most industrial LV distribution boards without an upstream current-limiting fuse.

Thermal performance and panel fit

At 80 A the maximum power loss is 19 W — modest enough that standard DIN-rail or base-mount spacing in a ventilated enclosure handles the heat without forced cooling. The 4-pole width (101.6 mm) matches the standard 4-module MCCB footprint for panel cutouts and busbar layouts.

Frequently asked questions

What is the breaking capacity of 3VM1180-3GE42-0AA0 at different voltages?
