Interchangeable thermal-magnetic trip provides precise overload protection with fast fault clearing, reducing nuisance trips and helping protect motors and circuits. This enables safer startup and consistent protection across multiple loads, which is especially valuable for OEM equipment and panel builders assembling multi-circuit enclosures. Application: control panels and motor control centers. High current capability—400 A with 690 Vac and 250 Vdc ratings and a 45 kAIC interrupt capacity at 415 Vac—ensures reliable interruption of fault currents in demanding installations. This aligns with IEC-rated protection goals and supports robust compliance for motor loads, critical drives, and distribution panels. Application: large motors, conveyors, and power distribution schemes. Three-pole LW frame with a complete breaker design simplifies upgrade paths and spare parts management. Standardization reduces inventory complexity for maintainers and OEMs while accelerating panel assembly and serviceability. Application: new equipment builds and retrofit projects across industrial automation. Line and load end caps with metric mounting hardware enable fast installation and clean, secure terminations. This minimizes wiring errors and field rework, lowering overall project risk and downtime. Application: field upgrades, service centers, and modular panel assemblies. IEC Rated with a World-class design supports global deployment with consistent performance. The combination of protection reliability and broad compatibility helps distributors and integrators streamline procurement and support across sites worldwide.

FAQs
LW3400D09 employs metric mounting hardware and ships with line and load end caps to simplify installation. Its dimensions—4.06 in depth and 8.25 in both height and width—support standard panel cutouts and enclosure layouts. This consistency reduces field modification time and ensures dependable seating in typical control panels and MCC housings.
The T207 trip type provides an interchangeable thermal-magnetic protection scheme, delivering fast overload and short-circuit interruption. This coordination minimizes nuisance trips while preserving circuit selectivity, safeguarding motors and critical loads in panels and MCCs. It also simplifies aftermarket tuning and maintenance because the trip mechanism can be matched to application duty.
Yes. LW3400D09 is rated for 690 Vac and 250 Vdc, supporting diverse industrial circuits and motor applications. With a 400 A amperage rating and a 45 kAIC interrupt capability at 415 Vac, it provides robust protection for high-energy distribution networks while remaining compatible with common drive systems and panel architectures.
Ideal uses include motor control centers, industrial control panels, OEM equipment, and other demanding load centers. The three-pole LW frame and complete breaker design enable straightforward integration, while line/load end caps and metric mounting simplify field retrofit and panel upgrades, reducing downtime and ensuring reliable circuit protection in busy manufacturing environments.
LW3400D09 is IEC Rated, designed for worldwide use, and built for reliability in industrial settings. Regular maintenance should include inspection of line/load terminations and periodic verification of trip coordination with the protected circuits.
