The 3VA2116-5HL32-0CH0 measures 105 mm wide, 181 mm tall, and 86 mm deep — a standard SENTRON 3VA footprint that drops into existing MCCB panel cutouts without rewiring if the previous breaker was a 3VA2 series unit. The 3-pole block occupies three module widths on a DIN rail or direct-mount backplate. Breaking capacity: 187 kA at 240 V, 121 kA at 415 V / 440 V, 75.6 kA at 500 V, 3.7 kA at 690 V. Poles: 3. Auxiliary switches: 2 aux + 1 trip alarm (HQ). Undervoltage release: yes. Trip indicator: yes. Power loss: 28 W max. Operating temperature: -25 °C to 70 °C. Storage: -40 °C to 80 °C.","metaTitle":"Siemens 3VA2116-5HL32-0CH0 SENTRON MCCB, 160 A, 3-Pole, 187","metaDescription":"Siemens SENTRON 3VA2116-5HL32-0CH0 molded case circuit breaker, 160 A continuous, 3-pole, 187 kA breaking at 240 V.
