It isolates a circuit under load but does not trip on overcurrent — the protection downstream (fuses or a breaker) handles that. The shunt trip (STL) allows remote opening via a control signal at 220–250 V DC or 208–277 V AC, and the two HQ auxiliary switches report the main contact position back to the PLC or panel indication. ## Current rating — flat across the working range The 160 A rating holds flat from 40 °C through 50 °C, then derates smoothly to 150 A at 70 °C. ## Panel fit and connections The 76.2 mm width (3-inch footprint) matches the standard 3-pole MCCB cutout in most panel layouts. Depth is 70 mm, height 130 mm. Main circuit connection is via busbar — front terminal arrangement — so it is designed for horizontal busbar systems common in distribution boards. The auxiliary switch block (2 CO contacts) and shunt trip are factory-integrated; no add-on modules to source separately.","metaTitle":"Siemens 3VA1116-1AA32-0KC0 SENTRON Switch Disconnector, 160","metaDescription":"Siemens SENTRON 3VA1116-1AA32-0KC0 switch disconnector, 160 A continuous rating, 3-pole, IEC frame 160, with shunt trip STL and 2 HQ auxiliary switches.

The key difference: the 3VA1116-1AA32-0KC0 is a switch disconnector only — no overload or short-circuit protection — while the 3VA1110-5ED36-0AC0 is a full molded case circuit breaker with adjustable thermal and fixed magnetic trips. If the application requires integral overcurrent protection, the 3VA1110-5ED36-0AC0 is the correct choice; if isolation-only is needed, the 3VA1116-1AA32-0KC0 fits. Both share the same 76.2 mm width, 70 mm depth, and front-termina"},{"question":"Will 3VA1116-1AA32-0KC0 drop into a panel specified for 3VA1110-5ED36-0AC0?","answer":"Yes — both parts share the same 76.2 mm width, 70 mm depth, and front-terminal busbar connection. The panel cutout and busbar arrangement are identical. The only functional difference is that the 3VA1116-1AA32-0KC0 provides no overcurrent protection, so the downstream protection scheme must account for that."},{"question":"What compliance documentation is available for this part?","answer":"As a Siemens SENTRON product, the 3VA1116-1AA32-0KC0 is designed to meet IEC 60947-3 (switch-disconnector standard) and carries CE marking for the European market. RoHS and REACH compliance documentation is available from Siemens upon request.
