Interrupting capacity hits 242 kA at 240 V AC, 187 kA at 415 V, and still delivers 121 kA at 500 V. The 63 A frame is flat-rated across the operating temperature range — no thermal derating curve to calculate below 70 °C. That simplifies panel budgeting: the breaker delivers its full nameplate at the back of a warm enclosure. The shunt trip (STL) allows remote tripping from an emergency-stop circuit or PLC output. The auxiliary switch block provides two form-C contacts for status feedback and one dedicated trip-alarm contact — enough for a motor control center (MCC) bucket or a distribution panel with remote monitoring.","metaTitle":"Siemens 3VA2163-6HL32-0JH0 SENTRON MCCB, 63 A, 3-Pole, 242 k","metaDescription":"Siemens SENTRON 3VA2163-6HL32-0JH0 molded case circuit breaker, 63 A continuous, 3-pole, interrupting capacity 242 kA at 240 V.
