That means in a crowded panel where internal temperature runs high, you don't have to oversize the frame or drop to a lower trip setting. The 3-pole design is specifically configured for motor protection, with phase failure detection built in. Breaking capacity is the headline here: 330 kA at 240 V, 242 kA at 415 V and 440 V, 187 kA at 500 V, and 3.7 kA at 690 V. The 3.7 kA at 690 V is the tail end, but for most industrial 400 V class systems the 242 kA is more than adequate for 99% of installations. ## Motor protection package: UVR, auxiliary switches, and trip characteristics The UVR means the breaker trips immediately on loss of control voltage, which is standard for motor protection circuits where you want a guaranteed stop on power loss. The basic switch variant is 3VA2163-7MN36-0AA0, meaning this -0CC0 suffix adds the UVR and auxiliary switches as a factory-assembled package. No field retrofitting required — it arrives ready to wire into a motor starter or feeder circuit. Power loss is 6.5 W maximum, which is modest for a 63 A frame and keeps heat buildup manageable in a DIN-rail enclosure. ## Physical fit: 86 mm depth, 105 mm width, 181 mm height That 105 mm width is standard for a 3-pole 63 A MCCB in the SENTRON 3VA2 platform — it fits the same panel footprint as other 3VA2 breakers in this current class. Mounting is via the rear DIN-rail clip or screw-mount lugs; no special adapter required. ## Environmental range and approvals The 70 °C operating max aligns with the flat derating curve — no performance hit at the top end.","metaTitle":"Siemens 3VA2163-7MN36-0CC0 SENTRON MCCB, 63 A, 3-Pole, Motor","metaDescription":"Siemens 3VA2163-7MN36-0CC0 SENTRON molded case circuit breaker, 63 A continuous, 3-pole, motor protection design with undervoltage release. 330 kA at 240 V.
