It is designed for line protection and carries a TM210 thermal-magnetic release. The interrupting capacity is 121 kA at 240 V AC and 75.6 kA at 415 V AC — figures that govern fault-clearing capability in low-voltage distribution panels. At 240 V AC the breaker clears 121 kA; at 415 V AC it clears 75.6 kA. These are the symmetrical short-circuit current ratings — the values that determine whether the breaker coordinates with downstream devices and withstands a fault without upstream interruption. For a 415 V panel feeding motor control centers or branch feeders, the 75.6 kA SCCR gives headroom for most industrial transformer ratings up to about 2500 kVA. ## Thermal derating and continuous current The 160 A rating holds up to 50 °C ambient. Above that, the continuous current derates linearly: 158 A at 55 °C, 155 A at 60 °C, 153 A at 65 °C, and 150 A at 70 °C. For a panel with high internal temperature rise — say, a sealed enclosure near a furnace or in a Saudi summer — the 70 °C figure of 150 A is the one to design to, not the 160 A nameplate. The breaker occupies 50.8 mm width (2 inches), 130 mm height (5.12 inches), and 70 mm depth (2.76 inches). The 2-pole width is standard for a 160 A frame — it fits a 2-module DIN cutout or a dedicated MCCB mounting plate.","metaTitle":"3VA1116-4ED22-0AA0 SENTRON MCCB, 160A, 2-pole, 121kA/240V","metaDescription":"Siemens SENTRON 3VA1116-4ED22-0AA0 molded case circuit breaker, 160A continuous, 2-pole, 121 kA at 240 V AC, 75.6 kA at 415 V AC.
