It ships with a built-in communication function and includes a basic switch (order code 3VA21165JQ320AA0), plus two auxiliary switches and one trip-alarm switch (HQ) plus a shunt trip release (STL). That means the breaker can report its status to a PLC or BMS without an external interface module. Dimensions are 181 mm high, 105 mm wide, 86 mm deep — a standard SENTRON 3VA footprint for 160 A frame.","metaTitle":"Siemens 3VA2116-5JQ32-0JH0 SENTRON MCCB, 160 A, 3-Pole, 187","metaDescription":"Siemens 3VA2116-5JQ32-0JH0 SENTRON molded case circuit breaker, 160 A, 3-pole, 187 kA SCCR at 240 V.
