3VL Molded Case Circuit Breakers

High breaking capacities

With a breaking capacity of 16 A up to 1,600 A, 3VL molded case circuit breakers are ideally suited for coordinated solutions in infrastructure and industrial applications.

Depending on individual requirements, the communication-capable devices are available for system and motor protection, for starter combinations or as switch disconnectors. The corresponding trip units come as thermal-magnetic (16 A to 630 A) or electronic (63 A to 1,600 A) versions.

3VL molded case circuit breakers are certified according to IEC and UL.
