Power loss is 6.5 W maximum — negligible for ventilation planning in a typical distribution board, but worth noting if you pack multiple breakers in a sealed enclosure. ## Lifecycle and sourcing — current production, quoted to order No phase-out or last-time-buy horizon is announced.","metaTitle":"Siemens 3VA2163-6HN36-0BH0 SENTRON MCCB, 63 A, 242 kA at 240","metaDescription":"Siemens SENTRON 3VA2163-6HN36-0BH0 molded case circuit breaker, 63 A continuous, 242 kA breaking at 240 V.
