The ETU340 release provides adjustable N-conductor protection (OFF or 100% of phase current), useful for 4-wire systems where you need to protect the neutral against harmonics or unbalanced loads. The 20 000 mechanical endurance cycles reflect a robust mechanism suited for switching applications where the breaker doubles as a disconnect under load. ## Deployment context This MCCB mounts into a standard panel or enclosure via the SENTRON 3VA mounting base; the 86 mm depth, 140 mm width, and 181 mm height fit within the typical 200 mm deep enclosure used for commercial and industrial distribution boards. Power loss is 4 W maximum, so heat dissipation in a dense panel is manageable.","metaTitle":"Siemens SENTRON 3VA2163-7HK46-0AA0 MCCB, 63 A, 4-Pole, ETU34","metaDescription":"Siemens SENTRON 3VA2163-7HK46-0AA0 molded case circuit breaker, 63 A rated, 4-pole, ETU340 release.
