The phase-failure detection and trip indicator are built in, so it handles the typical motor-protection coordination without an external relay. The basic switch variant is 3VA2163-7MN36-0AA0. Dimensions are 86 mm deep, 105 mm wide, and 181 mm high — a standard 3-pole MCCB footprint for the SENTRON 3VA2 frame. The undervoltage release coil and auxiliary wiring terminals are accessible from the front, so panel wiring and troubleshooting don't require pulling the breaker.","metaTitle":"Siemens 3VA2163-7MN36-0CL0 SENTRON MCCB, 63 A, 3-Pole, Motor","metaDescription":"Siemens 3VA2163-7MN36-0CL0 SENTRON molded case circuit breaker, 63 A rated at 40-70°C, 330 kA breaking at 240 V, 3-pole, motor protection design with undervoltage release.
