SIEMENS 5SV3344-4 Aardlekschakelaar type B 40A 30mA 4TE SENTRON 5SV3

The SIEMENS 5SV3344-4 is a high-quality residual current circuit breaker (RCCB) from the SENTRON 5SV3 series. Designed for reliable protection against electric shock and fire hazards, this 4-pole device features Type B tripping characteristic, making it suitable for universal current-sensitive applications including AC, pulsating DC, and smooth DC fault currents. With a rated current of 40 A and a rated residual operating current of 30 mA, it ensures safe operation in residential, commercial, and industrial installations.

Advantages

Type B sensitivity detects all types of fault currents, including smooth DC, providing maximum protection. Compact 4 TE width saves space on DIN rail. High short-circuit withstand capacity of 10 kA ensures robustness. Screw terminals allow secure connection of conductors up to 35 mm². Wide operating temperature range from -25 °C to +45 °C ensures reliable performance in various environments.
