The 4-pole design handles three-phase plus neutral or switched neutral in distribution panels. Interrupting capacity is 121 kA at 240 V AC and 75.6 kA at 415 V AC, so it stands up to high-fault utility feeds without cascading upstream breakers. The 160 A rating holds flat from 40 °C to 50 °C, then derates to 150 A at 70 °C (–). Dimensions are 101.6 mm wide by 130 mm tall by 70 mm deep (–), a compact footprint for a 4-pole 160 A frame. Front IP40 means tools or fingers won't contact live parts, but the unit is not sealed against washdown; keep it inside a panel.","metaTitle":"Siemens 3VA1116-4ED42-0AA0 SENTRON MCCB, 160 A, 4-Pole, 70 m","metaDescription":"Siemens 3VA1116-4ED42-0AA0 SENTRON molded case circuit breaker, 160 A at 40 °C, 4-pole, TM210 release, 121 kA at 240 V.

The 3VA1116-4ED42-0AA0 carries a higher continuous rating (160 A vs the 3VA1112's lower frame) and a TM210 release; the panel's bus and cable must be sized for 160 A, but the mechanical fit is a direct swap."},{"question":"Where can I buy 3VA1116-4ED42-0AA0 and how is it quoted?","answer":"This part is sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution channels.
