That gives you selectivity headroom on most 480 V or 400 V industrial feeds — the 32 kA at 440 V covers typical North American 480Y/277 V panels without cascading upstream. The 160 A rating holds flat from 40 °C to 50 °C, then drops to 158 A at 55 °C, 155 A at 60 °C, 153 A at 65 °C, and 150 A at 70 °C. Footprint is 130 mm high, 101.6 mm wide, 70 mm deep — a 4-pole MCCB that fits standard 100 mm pitch DIN-rail or panel-mount layouts. ## What the TM210 release means for coordination The TM210 is a thermal-magnetic release — fixed thermal pickup at 160 A, magnetic short-circuit pickup at 10x In (1600 A). That's a standard distribution curve: no electronic adjustment, no communication, no ground-fault monitoring. It's a straightforward line-protection breaker for feeders where you don't need selective coordination below 10x In.","metaTitle":"Siemens 3VA1116-3ED42-0AA0 SENTRON MCCB, 160 A, 4-Pole, TM21","metaDescription":"Siemens SENTRON 3VA1116-3ED42-0AA0 molded case circuit breaker, 160 A at 40 °C, 4-pole, TM210 release, 75.6 kA at 240 V.
