Communication function is built in, so this breaker can report status and accept remote trip commands over the SENTRON communication bus — no external module required for basic connectivity. At 240 V it interrupts 187 kA; at 415 V and 440 V it holds 121 kA; at 500 V it still manages 75.6 kA; at 690 V it drops to 3.7 kA. That 187 kA at 240 V is well above typical utility fault levels in North American 240/120 V split-phase or 240 V delta services — you have headroom for high-fault panels without cascading upstream fuses. The 86 mm depth (3.39 in) means it clears shallow backpanel enclosures where deeper breakers would hit the gland plate. Power loss is 25.5 W maximum at rated current — account for that in enclosure thermal calculations, especially in sealed stainless-steel panels.","metaTitle":"Siemens 3VA2116-5JP32-0AA0 SENTRON MCCB, 160 A, 3-Pole, ETU5","metaDescription":"Siemens SENTRON 3VA2116-5JP32-0AA0 molded case circuit breaker, 160 A continuous, 3-pole, ETU550 electronic trip unit.
