The Siemens 3VA5160-4ED21-0AA0 is a molded-case circuit breaker classified under the SENTRON series. This device is engineered for superior breaking capabilities, rated up to 65 kA at 240 V and 25 kA at 480 V, ensuring reliable protection against short circuits. With a maximum short-circuit current breaking capacity (Icu) of 55 kA for 240 V and 36 kA for 415 V, it excels in safeguarding electrical systems.
General specifications include an insulation voltage rated at 500 V and an operational voltage of 415 V for AC applications. The module can also manage up to 250 V for DC applications. Power loss for this module does not exceed 10.26 W, reflecting efficient energy use.
The 3VA5160-4ED21-0AA0 offers an adjustable response value setting for the L-trip characteristic, allowing flexibility in the maximum and minimum settings up to 60 A. In terms of longevity, the device shows a mechanical service life of about 20,000 operating cycles, with an electrical endurance of 8,000 cycles at AC-1 for both 380 and 415 V operations.
However, it is important to note that this circuit breaker lacks grounding protection, undervoltage releases, and trip indicators, which may require additional considerations for specific applications. The main current circuit connection type is designed without any specific electrical connection requirements, simplifying installation in compatible systems.
