Product details

What this MCCB carries on the line side

The thermal-magnetic TM240 release gives it a fixed thermal pickup and magnetic trip tailored for cable and busbar protection, not adjustable load curves. At 240 V it interrupts 75.6 kA; at 415 V that drops to 52.5 kA; at 440 V it's 32 kA; and at 500 V or 690 V it holds at 11.9 kA (–).

Footprint is 76.2 mm wide, 130 mm tall, 70 mm deep (–) — a standard 3-pole MCCB envelope that drops into most SENTRON panelboards and distribution blocks without re-drilling. No undervoltage release, no voltage trip, no communication module — this is a plain-vanilla line-protection breaker with basic aux contacts.

Frequently asked questions

What is the closest functional second-source to 3VA1116-3EF36-0AB0?

The 3VA1110-5ED36-0AC0 is a sibling in the same SENTRON 3VA family, but it carries a different continuous rating and breaking capacity profile. The 3VA1116-3EF36-0AB0 is a 160 A frame with a TM240 release; the 3VA1110-5ED36-0AC0 is a lower-current variant. They share the same physical footprint (76.2 mm wide, 130 mm tall, 70 mm deep), so a panel drilled for one will accept the other without rewiring, but the trip curve and interrupting ratings differ — verify the load's fault current before swapping.

How do I get current pricing and availability for 3VA1116-3EF36-0AB0?

This part is sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time — submit an RFQ for a firm number.

Will 3VA1116-3EF36-0AB0 drop into a panel that was specified around 3VA1110-5ED36-0AC0 without rewiring?

Yes, the physical dimensions are identical: 76.2 mm wide, 130 mm tall, 70 mm deep (–). Both are 3-pole SENTRON MCCBs with the same mounting pattern. The difference is in the trip rating and breaking capacity — the 3VA1116-3EF36-0AB0 carries 160 A continuous versus the lower rating of the 3VA1110-5ED36-0AC0. As long as the feeder and bus can handle 160 A, it's a mechanical drop-in.
