Above 50 °C it steps down: 60.6375 A at 55 °C, 58.275 A at 60 °C, 55.9125 A at 65 °C, and 53.55 A at 70 °C — so if your panel ambient runs hot, the 63 A nameplate only holds below 55 °C. The interrupting capacity tells the real story: 187 kA at 240 V, 121 kA at 415 V and 440 V, 79 kA at 500 V, and 4.25 kA at 690 V. The 4.25 kA at 690 V is low enough that you need to check selectivity upstream if you're running 690 V gear. The ETU560 electronic trip unit handles the curve shaping — line protection profile, no voltage trigger, no phase failure detection. Footprint is 105 mm wide by 181 mm tall by 86 mm deep — standard 3-pole MCCB envelope for a 63 A frame. The depth is tight enough that most 600 mm deep enclosures leave room behind the gland plate for wiring. Communication function is onboard, so it can talk to a BMS or PLC without a separate module.","metaTitle":"Siemens 3VA2163-5JQ32-0DH0 SENTRON MCCB, 63 A, 187 kA","metaDescription":"Siemens SENTRON 3VA2163-5JQ32-0DH0 molded case circuit breaker, 63 A rated, 187 kA at 240 V, 3-pole, line protection with ETU560 release.
