With the part number SHKF3B100, this Siemens circuit breaker is designed to safeguard commercial and light‑industrial electrical distributions where reliable, coordinated interruption is essential.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey specifications at a glance\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCurrent rating:\u003c\/strong\u003e 100 A\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoles:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3 (three‑pole) for full three‑phase coverage\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVoltage rating:\u003c\/strong\u003e 600 V\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePart number:\u003c\/strong\u003e SHKF3B100\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003ch3\u003eWhy the SHKF3B100 stands out\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis Siemens breaker is purpose‑built to provide reliable overload and short‑circuit protection across all three hot legs. The 3‑pole design ensures synchronized disconnection, which is crucial for balanced three‑phase loads such as motors, pumps, and conveyors. By isolating all phases together, it minimizes unbalanced conditions and protects downstream equipment from damage and nuisance outages.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eIdeal use cases\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eThree‑phase motor protection in commercial facilities and light‑industrial plants\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eProtection for feeders and distribution circuits in panelboards and switchgear\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eSafeguarding equipment racks and machinery that rely on stable three‑phase power\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003ch3\u003eWhat problems it solves\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003ePrevents equipment damage from overloads by interrupting excessive current quickly\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eProvides coordinated tripping across all three phases to avoid partial faults\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eReduces downtime and maintenance costs by protecting critical loads and circuits\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003ch3\u003eHow this compares to standard solutions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCompared to single‑pole protection, the SHKF3B100 delivers true three‑phase coverage, ensuring that all phases are simultaneously protected.
