The interrupting capacity is the headline: 330 kA at 240 V, 242 kA at 415 V, and still 52.5 kA at 690 V. The UVR means if control power drops, the breaker trips; that's standard for emergency-stop chains or undervoltage protection on motor feeders. ## Thermal management and power loss Maximum power loss is 75 W at rated current. That's not trivial — in a sealed, high-density panel, account for that heat in the thermal budget. The derating curve above 50 °C is gradual (losing about 6 A per 10 °C step), so you can still run it at 150 A in a 60 °C ambient without tripping on thermal memory.","metaTitle":"Siemens 3VA2216-7MN32-0BC0 SENTRON MCCB, 160 A, 330 kA","metaDescription":"Siemens SENTRON 3VA2216-7MN32-0BC0 molded case circuit breaker, 160 A rated, 330 kA at 240 V.
