The Siemens 3RV1742-5QD10 is categorized as a circuit breaker, engineered to handle substantial electrical demands. It possesses a continuous current rating of 70 amperes in the AC-3 utilization category at 400 volts AC, making it suitable for three-phase power systems. This circuit breaker boasts impressive short-circuit interrupting abilities, rated at 100 kA for 400 V AC and 65 kA for 480 V AC, meeting UL 489 requirements.
Rated for a maximum operational voltage of 690 V AC, the 3RV1742-5QD10 ensures durability under demanding conditions. Additionally, it features an impulse withstand voltage of 6 kV, providing essential surge protection against voltage spikes. The ingress protection rating of IP20 indicates that it safeguards against solid objects of considerable size.
With a mechanical endurance of up to 50,000 switching cycles, the main contact lifespan supports longevity in operating conditions. It is compatible with standard 35 mm DIN rail mounting configurations for easy installation. Dimensions for this model are 168 mm in height, 70 mm in width, and 174 mm in depth.
The overload release is preset with a fixed thermal trip threshold at 70 A, which is not adjustable for flexibility in various applications. Terminal connections consist of screw-type connectors for the main circuit, along with box terminals for conductor attachment. This unit supports conductor compatibility ranging from 2.5 to 50 mm² for stranded conductors and 2.5 to 16 mm² for solid conductors, along with flexible wiring up to AWG 10-2. The 3RV1742-5QD10 operates effectively within an ambient temperature range of -20°C to +60°C, making it versatile for numerous industrial applications.
