Built for high-fault environments, this 70-amp Sentron 3VA4 breaker offers robust thermal-magnetic trip functions with a 65kAIC rating at 480VAC. It fits into Siemens P1, P2, P3, P4, and P5 panelboards as well as compatible switchboards. Serving as an exact replacement for older HED42B070 and HHED62B070 models, the device ensures minimal downtime during facility upgrades. Current limiting technology and reverse feed capability add installation versatility.
