The HNX3D120 is a Siemens VL series molded case circuit breaker in the NG frame, rated for 1200 amps at 600 volts with 3 poles. Designed for main and feeder protection in industrial plants, commercial buildings, and switchgear, it protects circuits from overloads and short circuits in heavy-duty power distribution. With a high interrupting rating of 65kA@480V, it can safely interrupt the large fault currents found on higher-capacity systems.
The HNX3D120 is part of the HNX family of Siemens VL breakers, which use a compact, modular design and carry the major standards and markings, including UL, CSA, NOM, IEC, and CE. It has a non-interchangeable trip unit, which means the trip unit is built into the breaker and cannot be removed, and this construction makes the breaker suitable for reverse-fed applications. Siemens VL breakers are built for dependable, repeatable protection, which is why they are used across a wide range of facilities.
Mechanically, the HNX3D120 is a bolt-on breaker in a molded case, and it is sold without lugs, so the correct lugs must be ordered to match the cable size. Because the NG frame is a large, heavy-duty design, it is worth confirming that the breaker fits your switchgear, panelboard, or enclosure before ordering. This makes the HNX3D120 a practical choice for contractors and maintenance teams who need to replace or add a Siemens VL breaker and keep an existing power system running.
