It's a line-protection version — no ground-fault monitoring, no auxiliary contacts, no communication module — built for straightforward feeder or main-switch duty in distribution panels where you need a clean interrupting rating and a remote-trip capability. The interrupting ratings climb to 187 kA at 240 V and 121 kA at 415/440 V, then drop to 79 kA at 500 V and 4.25 kA at 690 V. Dimensions are 105 mm wide, 181 mm tall, 86 mm deep — standard SENTRON 3VA frame size for a 160 A pole. The shunt trip (order code 3VA9688-0BL30) is factory-integrated, so you get remote trip via a control voltage without adding an external module. The ETU320 release gives you electronic overcurrent protection with adjustable settings, a step up from thermal-magnetic on selectivity and accuracy. ## Thermal derating and endurance At 55 °C it derates to 154 A, then 148 A at 60 °C, 142 A at 65 °C, and 136 A at 70 °C. Latching endurance is 20 000 operations, which is typical for a fixed-mounted MCCB in a distribution board; it's not a switching-duty breaker for frequent load cycling.","metaTitle":"Siemens 3VA2116-5HL36-0HA0 SENTRON MCCB, 160 A, 187 kA at 24","metaDescription":"Siemens SENTRON 3VA2116-5HL36-0HA0 molded case circuit breaker, 160 A rated current, 187 kA interrupting at 240 V.
