That means it can sit in a hot top-of-panel location without losing capacity. The 3-pole frame mounts via screw-clamp or plug-in base in a standard distribution board. The shunt trip (STL) is factory-integrated — no field-add kit needed. Two auxiliary switches (HQ) give you one N/O + one N/C contact for remote status. The breaker is line-protection configured (not motor-protection), so thermal-magnetic curve is set for cable and busbar protection, not overload relay coordination.","metaTitle":"Siemens 3VA2163-6HN32-0KC0 SENTRON MCCB, 63 A, 3-Pole, 242 k","metaDescription":"Siemens SENTRON 3VA2163-6HN32-0KC0 molded case circuit breaker, 63 A rated at 40-70°C, 3-pole, 242 kA breaking at 240 V.
