Delivering 42kAIC at 480VAC, this three-pole 90-amp molded case circuit breaker provides essential thermal-magnetic protection for demanding electrical systems. It mounts securely into Siemens Sentron P1, P2, and P3 panelboards as well as SB switchboards. The ED frame device features a non-interchangeable trip unit and comes equipped with load side lugs. For modern upgrades, this unit is replaced by the 3VA5190-6ED31-0AA0, which requires a specific mounting strap kit for panelboard use.
Which panelboards are compatible with the HED43B090 circuit breaker?
This bolt-on breaker is designed for use in Siemens Sentron P1, P2, and P3 panelboards, as well as SB switchboards and Siemens motor control centers.
Does the HED43B090 include both line and load lugs?
No. As a bolt-on breaker, the line side bolts directly to the panelboard bus. It only includes mechanical lugs on the load side for wire termination.
Can the Siemens HED43B090 replace older ITE versions of the same model?
Yes. Siemens acquired ITE and continued the Sentron ED frame line. A modern Siemens HED43B090 is a direct, UL listed replacement for older ITE breakers with the exact same catalog number.
What is the difference between the ED43B090 and the HED43B090?
The HED43B090 is the high-interrupting version of the standard ED43B090. It provides a higher fault current rating of 42kA at 480VAC, compared to the standard 18kA rating of the ED4 model.
Is the HED43B090 suitable for direct current (DC) systems?
Yes. In addition to its AC ratings, this thermal-magnetic breaker is UL listed for DC applications with an interrupting rating of 30kA at 250VDC.
Are the trip settings adjustable on the HED43B090?
No. This breaker features a fixed thermal and fixed magnetic trip unit, providing standard long-time and instantaneous (LI) protection without adjustable dials.
