That trip alarm signals on overcurrent or short-circuit trip, not just manual operation — useful for remote fault annunciation in a PLC-based distribution monitoring scheme. Above that it derates: 158 A at 55 °C, 155 A at 60 °C, 153 A at 65 °C, and 150 A at 70 °C. If your panel ambient runs at 55 °C or higher, the breaker still carries the load but the trip curve shifts — account for the reduced headroom when coordinating with downstream protection. Width is 76.2 mm (3 inches), depth 70 mm, height 130 mm. The 70 mm depth leaves clearance for rear busbar connections in a typical 200 mm deep enclosure.","metaTitle":"Siemens 3VA1116-6EF32-0CH0 SENTRON MCCB, 160A 3P, 220 kA","metaDescription":"Siemens SENTRON 3VA1116-6EF32-0CH0 molded case circuit breaker, 160 A at 40 °C, 3-pole, breaking capacity 220 kA at 240 V.
