The 187 kA interrupting capacity at 240 V drops to 121 kA at 415/440 V, then 75.6 kA at 500 V, and 3.7 kA at 690 V; that 690 V figure means it's not your go-to for 690 V bus work unless the available fault current is very low. Power loss maxes at 4 W, which keeps the heat load in the enclosure manageable. ## What's on the van — field-service perspective If you're swapping a failed breaker on site and the old one had a shunt trip or UVR coil, this bare unit won't cover that function. The auxiliary switch count matches a lot of common panel designs, so the alarm/status wiring usually lands without rework. ## Panel integration — DIN rail and footprint Mounts on standard DIN rail — 105 mm wide for a 3-pole unit, which is the usual 3-module width for SENTRON MCCBs. No trip indicator window on this variant, so a visual check of the handle position is how you confirm state.","metaTitle":"Siemens 3VA2163-5HN32-0AE0 SENTRON MCCB, 63 A, 3-Pole, 187 k","metaDescription":"Siemens SENTRON 3VA2163-5HN32-0AE0 molded case circuit breaker, 63 A continuous, 3-pole, 187 kA interrupting at 240 V.
