This MCCB delivers 187 kA at 240 V, 121 kA at 415 V and 440 V, 75.6 kA at 500 V, and 3.7 kA at 690 V. For a 480 V panel with a 100 kA available fault current, this unit provides headroom; at 690 V the 3.7 kA limit means it's only suitable for low-fault-capacity circuits at that voltage. ## Thermal performance across ambient temperature The 63 A rating holds flat from 40 °C through 70 °C ambient — no derating needed up to the maximum operating temperature. That simplifies panel design in warm environments like motor control centers or enclosed switchgear. Dimensions are 105 mm wide, 181 mm high, 86 mm deep. The 105 mm width is standard for a 3-pole MCCB in this frame size, so it drops into existing SENTRON 3VA2 panel layouts without busbar rework.","metaTitle":"Siemens 3VA2163-5HL32-0JC0 SENTRON MCCB, 63 A, 3-Pole, 187 k","metaDescription":"Siemens SENTRON 3VA2163-5HL32-0JC0 molded case circuit breaker, 63 A rated, 3-pole, 187 kA breaking capacity at 240 V.

The -0JC0 variant adds a shunt trip release; the -0DB0 does not.
