It carries a C-curve trip characteristic and a 2 A rated current. The 3+N-pole configuration (three protected phases plus switched neutral) suits three-phase final subcircuits where neutral isolation is required.
RoHS compliance is confirmed since June 1, 2013. REACH candidate-list information is available from Siemens on request. No UL or CSA listing is stated in the evidence, so if your panel requires a UL 489 listing for the US market, verify that variant before committing the BOM line.
If your installation's available fault current is higher, you'd need a higher-rated breaker (10 kA or 25 kA) upstream to coordinate. The C-curve means the magnetic trip kicks in between 5× and 10× rated current (10 A to 20 A for this 2 A unit). That's a good fit for circuits with moderate startup surges — think small pumps, fans, or fluorescent lighting banks — where a B-curve would nuisance-trip on inrush but a D-curve would let a sustained overload run too long. At 2 A, this is a low-current MCB sized for control circuits or small lighting subcircuits.
