That 160 A frame means it handles a 160 A bus or feeder without forced cooling in most industrial enclosures. The breaking capacity tells you where it can sit: 187 kA at 240 V AC, 121 kA at 415 V and 440 V, 79 kA at 500 V, and 4.25 kA at 690 V. At 690 V the 4.25 kA is modest; this breaker is not your primary choice for 690 V distribution unless the available fault current is known to be low. The undervoltage release is built in; if your control voltage drops, the breaker opens without a separate shunt trip module. Two high-quality auxiliary switches report position back to the PLC or status panel. No phase-failure detection and no ground-fault monitoring module are fitted on this variant — if you need those, you're looking at a different suffix. The 86 mm depth means it clears a 100 mm deep enclosure backplate with room for wiring gutters.","metaTitle":"Siemens 3VA2116-5KP32-0CC0 SENTRON MCCB, 160 A, 187 kA at 24","metaDescription":"Siemens SENTRON 3VA2116-5KP32-0CC0 molded case circuit breaker, 160 A rated continuous current, 187 kA breaking capacity at 240 V AC. 3-pole line protection with ETU850 release, un","metaKeywords":null},"attributes":{"series":null,"packageCase":null,"mountingType":null,"rohsStatus":null,"productStatus":null,"categoryPath":["Molded Case Circuit Breakers (MCCB)"],"specifications":{"Depth":"86 mm","Width":"105 mm","Height":"181 mm","at 240 V":"187 kA","at 415 V":"121 kA","at 440 V":"121 kA","at 500 V":"79 kA","at 690 V":"4.25 kA","at 40 °C":"160 A","at 45 °C":"160 A","at 50 °C":"160 A","at 55 °C":"154 A","at 60 °C":"148 A","at 65 °C":"142 A","at 70 °C":"136 A","Trip indicator":"No","Number of poles":"3","Product version":"Line protection","Voltage trigger":"No","lifecycle_stage":"current","Product brand name":"SENTRON","Product designation":"Molded case circuit breaker","Latching - endurance":"20 000","Undervoltage Release":"Yes","Communication Function":"Yes","Phase failure detection":"No","During Storage / Maximum":"80 °C","During Storage / Minimum":"-40 °C","Power loss [W] / maximum":"28 W","Auxiliary contact version":"2 auxiliary switches HQ","During Operation / Maximum":"70 °C","During Operation / Minimum":"-25 °C","Other Measurement Function":"Yes","Rated continuous current Iu":"160 A","Rated insulation voltage Ui":"800 V","Of The Supplied Basic Switch":"3VA2116-5KP32-0AA0","Design of the auxiliary release":"Undervoltage release (UVR)","Ground fault monitoring version":"Without","Of The Integrated Auxiliary Trip":"3VA9608-0BB24","Design of the overcurrent release":"ETU850","Protection class IP / on the front":"IP40","Reference code / acc. to DIN EN 81346-2":"Q","Adjustable response value time / tr max.":"20","Adjustable response value time / tr min.":"0.5","Adjustable response value time / tsd max.":"0.5 s","Adjustable response value time / tsd min.":"0.05 s","Undervoltage Release With Leading Contact":"No","Product extension / optional / motor drive":"Yes","Adjustable response value current / Ir max.":"160 A","Adjustable response value current / li max.":"1 600 A","Adjustable response value current / li min.":"240 A","Adjustable response value current / lr min.":"64 A","Adjustable response value current / Isd max.":"1 600 A","Adjustable response value current / Isd min.":"96 A","Neutral conductors / upgradeable/retrofittable":"Yes","Number of CO contacts / for auxiliary contacts":"2","Protective function of the overcurrent release":"LSI","Of The Integrated Auxiliary Switch/Alarm Switch":"3VA9988-0AA12","Switching capacity class of the circuit breaker":"M","Max. rated operational current of the frame size":"160 A","Max. rated operational voltage Ue with AC 50/60Hz":"690 V","Type of electrical connection / for main current circuit":"Lug terminal","Arrangement of electrical connectors / for main current circuit":"Front terminal","Type of connectable conductor cross-section, connection screw, width x thickness , max.":"25 x 8.5","Type of connectable conductor cross-section, connection screw, width x thickness , min.":"13 x 1 mm"}},"commercial":{"minOrderQty":null,"leadTime":null,"referencePrice":null,"priceTiers":null},"links":{"datasheetUrl":"https://cdn.aoctrl.com/83eff65c44469ff46b70582785c85926.pdf","sourceUrl":"https://support.industry.siemens.com/webbackend/api/ProductSupport/TechnicalData?language=en&region=cn&productId=439752&mlfb=3VA2116-5KP32-0CC0","alternativesUrl":"https://aoctrl.com/api/mcp/products/3VA2116-5KP32-0CC0/alternatives.json"},"ai":{"faq":[{"question":"Where can I buy 3VA2116-5KP32-0CC0?","answer":"This part is sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution.
