Thermal derating is published across the full operating range: full 16 A up to 50 °C, then 15.36 A at 55 °C, stepping down to 14.4 A at 70 °C. ## Overcurrent release and auxiliary wiring For applications needing adjustable long-time and short-time pickup, you'd step up to the electronic release variants in the 3VA family. That's enough for remote status and alarm feedback to a PLC or SCADA without adding a separate aux module. Includes an integrated shunt trip release (STL), order code 3VA9688-0BL32 for the release itself. No undervoltage release on this variant — if you need UVR, that's a different order code. ## Mounting and environment Dimensions are 130 mm high, 76.2 mm wide, 70 mm deep — standard 3VA frame size.","metaTitle":"Siemens 3VA1196-3EF32-0JH0 SENTRON MCCB, 16 A, 75.6 kA at 24","metaDescription":"Siemens SENTRON 3VA1196-3EF32-0JH0 molded case circuit breaker, 16 A rated, 75.6 kA interrupting at 240 V.
