The ETU850 provides adjustable protection curves and communication capability, making this breaker suitable for selective coordination studies in low-voltage switchgear. The breaker carries its full 160 A rating from 40 °C through 50 °C ambient, then derates linearly to 136 A at 70 °C — a curve that matters when packing multiple breakers into a closed enclosure. At 55 °C it's 154 A; at 60 °C, 148 A; at 65 °C, 142 A. Front IP40 protection handles typical switchgear environments; no washdown rating here.","metaTitle":"Siemens 3VA2216-7KP32-0EL0 SENTRON MCCB, 160 A, 3-Pole, ETU8","metaDescription":"Siemens 3VA2216-7KP32-0EL0 SENTRON molded case circuit breaker, 160 A rated continuous current, 3-pole, ETU850 electronic trip unit, 330 kA at 240 V.
