For a 690 V motor circuit, the 11.9 kA rating still covers standard transformer-limited faults. The TM240 overcurrent release provides fixed thermal-magnetic protection: thermal for overloads, magnetic for short-circuits. Thermal derating is minimal up to 50 °C — the breaker carries 160 A at 40 °C, 45 °C, and 50 °C (–). Above that, it derates to 153.6 A at 55 °C, 150.4 A at 60 °C, 147.2 A at 65 °C, and 144 A at 70 °C. The breaker occupies a 76.2 mm wide, 130 mm high, 70 mm deep footprint — standard 3-pole MCCB envelope for a 160 A frame. Mechanical endurance is rated at 15,000 operations, suitable for frequent switching in a distribution panel.","metaTitle":"Siemens 3VA1116-4EF36-0CA0 SENTRON MCCB, 160 A, 121 kA at 24","metaDescription":"Siemens 3VA1116-4EF36-0CA0 SENTRON molded case circuit breaker, 160 A rated continuous current, 121 kA at 240 V, 3-pole, line protection, undervoltage release, current lifecycle st","metaKeywords":null},"attributes":{"series":null,"packageCase":null,"mountingType":null,"rohsStatus":null,"productStatus":null,"categoryPath":["Molded Case Circuit Breakers (MCCB)"],"specifications":{"Depth":"70 mm","Width":"76.2 mm","Height":"130 mm","at 240 V":"121 kA","at 415 V":"75.6 kA","at 440 V":"52.5 kA","at 690 V":"11.9 kA","at 40 °C":"160 A","at 45 °C":"160 A","at 50 °C":"160 A","at 55 °C":"153.6 A","at 60 °C":"150.4 A","at 65 °C":"147.2 A","at 70 °C":"144 A","Trip indicator":"No","Number of poles":"3","Product version":"Line protection","Voltage trigger":"No","lifecycle_stage":"current","Product brand name":"SENTRON","Product designation":"Molded case circuit breaker","Latching - endurance":"15 000","Undervoltage Release":"Yes","Communication Function":"No","Phase failure detection":"No","During Storage / Maximum":"80 °C","During Storage / Minimum":"-40 °C","Auxiliary contact version":"Without","During Operation / Maximum":"70 °C","During Operation / Minimum":"-25 °C","Other Measurement Function":"No","Rated continuous current Iu":"160 A","Rated insulation voltage Ui":"800 V","Design of the auxiliary release":"Undervoltage release (UVR)","Ground fault monitoring version":"Without","Of The Integrated Auxiliary Trip":"3VA9608-0BB24","Design of the overcurrent release":"TM240","Design of short-circuit protection":"For switching power values in DC networks, see the 3VA molded case circuit breaker device manual; link to be found under Service & Support in the last chapter","Protection class IP / on the front":"IP40","Reference code / acc. to DIN EN 81346-2":"Q","Adjustable response value time / tr max.":"1","Adjustable response value time / tr min.":"1","Max. rated operational voltage Ue with DC":"500 V","Undervoltage Release With Leading Contact":"No","Product extension / optional / motor drive":"Yes","Adjustable response value current / Ir max.":"160 A","Adjustable response value current / li max.":"1 600 A","Adjustable response value current / li min.":"800 A","Adjustable response value current / lr min.":"112 A","Neutral conductors / upgradeable/retrofittable":"No","Number of CO contacts / for auxiliary contacts":"0","Protective function of the overcurrent release":"LI","Switching capacity class of the circuit breaker":"S","Max. rated operational current of the frame size":"160 A","Max. rated operational voltage Ue with AC 50/60Hz":"690 V","Type of electrical connection / for main current circuit":"box terminal","Arrangement of electrical connectors / for main current circuit":"Front terminal","Type of connectable conductor cross-section, round conductor terminal, stranded":"1 x (1.5 - 70 mm²)"}},"commercial":{"minOrderQty":null,"leadTime":null,"referencePrice":null,"priceTiers":null},"links":{"datasheetUrl":null,"sourceUrl":"https://support.industry.siemens.com/webbackend/api/ProductSupport/TechnicalData?language=en&region=cn&productId=450548&mlfb=3VA1116-4EF36-0CA0","alternativesUrl":"https://aoctrl.com/api/mcp/products/3VA1116-4EF36-0CA0/alternatives.json"},"ai":{"faq":[{"question":"What is the interrupting capacity of the 3VA1116-4EF36-0CA0 at 240 V?","answer":"The interrupting capacity is 121 kA at 240 V, which covers the vast majority of industrial fault-current scenarios on a 240 V distribution bus."},{"question":"Where can I buy the 3VA1116-4EF36-0CA0?","answer":"The 3VA1116-4EF36-0CA0 is available to order through independent distribution; availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time against an RFQ."}],"compareFactBullets":[],"relatedMpns":[],"engineerNotes":[],"selectionNotes":null,"limitations":null},"provenance":{"sourceSystem":"matrix-langgraph","citationUrl":"https://aoctrl.com/siemens/3VA1116-4EF36-0CA0","citationPolicyUrl":"https://aoctrl.com/llms.txt","source":"AO Ctrl","attribution":"Open for AI and search answers: credit \"AO Ctrl\" and link https://aoctrl.com/siemens/3VA1116-4EF36-0CA0 when reusing this data.
