The interrupting capacity tells the real story: 187 kA at 240 V AC, 121 kA at 415 V and 440 V, 75.6 kA at 500 V, and 3.7 kA at 690 V. The adjustable thermal-magnetic trip unit is set from a minimum of 95 A to a maximum of 756 A, with an initial value of 16 A, giving the specifying engineer flexibility to tune the overload and short-circuit thresholds to the protected conductor or bus. The communication function enables integration with a higher-level monitoring system for energy management or predictive maintenance.","metaTitle":"Siemens 3VA2163-5JQ32-0HL0 SENTRON MCCB, 63A, 187kA at 240V","metaDescription":"Siemens SENTRON 3VA2163-5JQ32-0HL0 molded case circuit breaker, 3-pole, 63 A rated, 187 kA interrupting at 240 V.
