It carries an interrupting capacity of 187 kA at 240 V, 121 kA at 415 V and 440 V, 79 kA at 500 V, and 4.25 kA at 690 V — figures that govern its fault-clearing capability at the point of installation. No undervoltage release, no voltage trigger, no communication module, and no ground-fault monitoring are fitted on this variant — the base configuration is a straightforward thermal-magnetic replacement with electronic trip logic. The 3VA2116-5HL36-0AB0 measures 105 mm wide by 181 mm high by 86 mm deep, fitting standard SENTRON 3VA panel cutouts and busbar systems. The latching endurance of 20 000 operations aligns with typical MCCB service life for feeder and main-switch duty in industrial panels.","metaTitle":"Siemens 3VA2116-5HL36-0AB0 SENTRON MCCB, 160 A, 3-Pole, ETU3","metaDescription":"Siemens SENTRON 3VA2116-5HL36-0AB0 molded case circuit breaker, 160 A rated continuous current, 3-pole, ETU320 electronic trip unit. 187 kA at 240 V.
