Breaking capacity is 121 kA at 240 V, 75.6 kA at 415 V, 52.5 kA at 440 V, and 11.9 kA at 690 V — figures that cover most industrial distribution panels and motor control centers. Thermal derating is documented across the operating range: full 16 A up to 50 °C, then linearly down to 14.4 A at 70 °C. The front face carries an IP40 protection rating, suitable for standard enclosure mounting with a gland plate or cover. The 3-pole footprint matches the SENTRON 3VA family panel cutout, so a panel originally specified for a similar 3VA frame can accept this unit without rewiring the bus bars or modifying the DIN-rail mounting base.","metaTitle":"Siemens SENTRON 3VA1096-4ED32-0AF0 MCCB, 16A, 121kA at 240V","metaDescription":"Siemens SENTRON 3VA1096-4ED32-0AF0 molded case circuit breaker, 16A rated, 121kA breaking capacity at 240V.
