The 63 A rating holds across 40 °C to 50 °C without derating; above that it steps down to 60.6 A at 55 °C and 53.6 A at 70 °C. ## Trip unit and auxiliary contacts If you need communication or phase-failure detection, this base version doesn't carry those modules; the 3VA platform offers them on other order codes. The breaker is rated for 20,000 mechanical/electrical endurance cycles — standard for a 63 A frame in this class. Maximum power loss is 4 W, which keeps heat manageable inside a sealed enclosure. The interrupting capacity drops to 4.25 kA at 690 V — that's the limit of the frame at that voltage; verify coordination with upstream devices if you're running a 690 V distribution.","metaTitle":"Siemens 3VA2163-5HL36-0AB0 SENTRON MCCB, 63 A, 3-Pole, ETU32","metaDescription":"Siemens 3VA2163-5HL36-0AB0 SENTRON molded case circuit breaker, 63 A rated current, 3-pole, ETU320 electronic trip unit, 187 kA at 240 V.
