It carries 187 kA interrupting capacity at 240 V, dropping to 121 kA at 415 V and 440 V, 75.6 kA at 500 V, and 3.7 kA at 690 V — that last figure tells you this breaker is designed for low-voltage distribution, not 690 V motor circuits. The basic switch assembly is order code 3VA21635JQ320AA0. Mounts on DIN rail. Dimensions are 105 mm wide, 181 mm high, 86 mm deep — that's 4.13 in by 7.13 in by 3.39 in.","metaTitle":"SENTRON 3VA2163-5JQ32-0DC0 MCCB, 63 A, 3-Pole, 187 kA at 240","metaDescription":"SENTRON 3VA2163-5JQ32-0DC0 molded case circuit breaker, 63 A, 3-pole, 187 kA at 240 V.
