Breaking capacity hits 187 kA at 240 V and 121 kA at 415 V, tapering to 17 kA at 690 V — enough headroom for most industrial service-entrance or distribution boards where fault current is high at the lower voltage taps. The depth is shallow enough to clear a 120 mm-deep enclosure gland plate; no need to respace the backplane for this one. ## Trip unit and auxiliary wiring","metaTitle":"Siemens 3VA2216-5MN32-0AF0 SENTRON MCCB, 160 A, 3-Pole, ETU3","metaDescription":"Siemens SENTRON 3VA2216-5MN32-0AF0 molded case circuit breaker, 160 A rated continuous current, 3-pole motor protection, ETU350M release, 187 kA at 240 V.
