The Siemens SENTRON 5SM9342-0KK is a 4-pole residual current unit (RC unit) rated at 40 A with a 30 mA trip threshold, type AC, designed for instantaneous operation on 400 V AC, 50 Hz networks. It's a current-production component, so the supply chain is stable — no last-time-buy scramble.
The 40 A rating at 40 °C (37.2 A) and the full derating curve up to 70 °C (32 A) tell you this unit is designed for a warm panel — it doesn't lose half its capacity when the enclosure hits 50 °C. The 30 mA trip threshold covers personnel protection (hand-to-hand or hand-to-ground fault paths) per IEC 60364.
This part carries a current lifecycle stage, meaning Siemens has no active phase-out plan. For volume or blanket-order commitments, we can lock in a pricing window.
