Product details

The Siemens 3VA1116-3EF36-0HC0 is a SENTRON 3-pole molded case circuit breaker rated 160 A continuous at 40 °C, with a 75.6 kA interrupting capacity at 240 VAC.

The 160 A rating holds across 40–50 °C ambient, then derates to 150 A at 70 °C — useful if the breaker sits near other heat sources in a crowded enclosure. The 75.6 kA at 240 V is the peak short-circuit current it can safely interrupt; at 415 V that drops to 52.5 kA, and at 690 V to 11.9 kA. The shunt trip (STL) allows remote tripping from an E-stop or PLC output, and the two auxiliary switches (HQ) provide status feedback for the control system.

Panel integration

Dimensions are 70 mm deep, 76.2 mm wide, 130 mm tall — fits a standard 3-pole MCCB footprint on a DIN rail or panel-mount base. The 76.2 mm width (3 inches) matches the typical SENTRON 3VA frame spacing, so it drops into an existing 3VA panel layout without re-drilling. Maximum power loss is 38 W; account for that heat in the enclosure thermal calculation.

Frequently asked questions

How do I get current pricing and availability for 3VA1116-3EF36-0HC0?

This part is sourced to order against an RFQ through independent distribution. Submit a request for quote; availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time.

What is the interrupting capacity of this MCCB at 240 V?

75.6 kA at 240 VAC. At 415 V it is 52.5 kA, at 440 V it is 32 kA, and at 690 V it is 11.9 kA.

What compliance documentation does Siemens provide for this breaker?

The evidence does not list specific certifications, but as a SENTRON MCCB it typically carries IEC 60947-2 and UL 489 compliance — confirm the exact marking on the nameplate for your jurisdiction.
