Interrupting capacity is the headline here: 187 kA at 240 V, 121 kA at 415 V and 440 V, 75.6 kA at 500 V, and 3.7 kA at 690 V. The steep drop to 3.7 kA at 690 V is normal for this frame size; if your system runs at 690 V, verify the available fault current stays under that limit. Power loss is 4 W maximum — negligible for thermal budgeting inside a panel. ## Panel Fit & Integration Dimensions are 105 mm wide, 181 mm tall, and 86 mm deep — a standard 3-pole MCCB footprint that fits most DIN-rail or panel-mount enclosures without surprises. The 86 mm depth is the body-only dimension; allow additional clearance for the handle throw and rear terminals when laying out the gland plate.","metaTitle":"Siemens 3VA2163-5MN32-0AG0 SENTRON MCCB, 63 A, 187 kA at 240","metaDescription":"Siemens SENTRON 3VA2163-5MN32-0AG0 molded case circuit breaker, 63 A continuous, 187 kA interrupting at 240 V.
