Product details

Its 400 A continuous current at 40 °C and 3-pole construction make it a fit for main or large feeder breakers in commercial and industrial switchboards. The TM220 overcurrent release is a thermal-magnetic design — the thermal element handles overloads with an inverse-time curve, and the magnetic element trips instantaneously on short-circuit. The interrupting ratings tell you where it can safely clear a fault: 121 kA at 240 VAC, 76 kA at 415 VAC, and 53 kA at 500 VAC. That 121 kA figure at 240 V means it can handle high available fault current common in North American 240/120 V distribution without needing a current-limiting fuse upstream. The 690 VAC rated operating voltage and 800 V rated insulation voltage confirm it is designed for 400 V and 480 V systems with margin.

Thermal derating and continuous current across temperature

This breaker holds its full 400 A rating from 40 °C through 50 °C. Above that, it derates: 392 A at 55 °C, 384 A at 60 °C, 376 A at 65 °C, and 367 A at 70 °C.

Dimensions are 248 mm high, 138 mm wide, and 110 mm deep. That 138 mm width is standard for a 3-pole MCCB in this class — it occupies three 45 mm pole spaces on a DIN rail or panel-mount base.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy the 3VM1340-4EE32-0AA0 and what is the lead time?

This part is sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time — no stock count or lead-time number is published here.

What is the closest functional alternative to the 3VM1340-4EE32-0AA0?

The 3VA1112-5EE32-0AA0 is a smaller-frame SENTRON MCCB (typically 100–160 A range) and will not drop into a panel wired for 400 A without busbar and lug changes. The 3VM1340 frame is the correct size for this 400 A continuous rating; the 3VA series is a different frame family. For a direct replacement within the same frame, stick with the 3VM1340-4EE32-0AA0.

What are the interrupting ratings of the 3VM1340-4EE32-0AA0?

121 kA at 240 VAC, 76 kA at 415 VAC, 76 kA at 440 VAC, and 53 kA at 500 VAC. These are the maximum fault currents the breaker can safely interrupt at those voltages.
