Product details

The Siemens 3VA1116-4EF32-0AD0 is a 3-pole SENTRON molded case circuit breaker (MCCB) rated for line protection, carrying a rated continuous current Iu of 160 A. The interrupting ratings are 121 kA at 240 V, 75.6 kA at 415 V, 52.5 kA at 440 V, and 11.9 kA at 690 V. That 75.6 kA at 415 V is the figure most often needed for European 400 V industrial panels; it tells you this breaker can clear a bolted fault at the main distribution board without upstream fuses needing to open.

Current derating and ambient temperature

The 160 A rating holds flat from 40 °C up to 50 °C ambient. Above that, the continuous current must be derated: 153.6 A at 55 °C, 150.4 A at 60 °C, 147.2 A at 65 °C, and 144 A at 70 °C. If this breaker lives in a non-air-conditioned enclosure near a furnace line or in a Middle East panel room, that 144 A at 70 °C is the number to use for load planning — not the 160 A nameplate.

Dimensions are 130 mm height, 76.2 mm width, 70 mm depth. The width is a standard 3-pole MCCB footprint — 76.2 mm (3 inches) — so it drops into most panel-mounted MCCB bases without re-drilling.

Frequently asked questions

What is the interrupting rating of 3VA1116-4EF32-0AD0 at 415 V?

The interrupting rating at 415 V is 75.6 kA. At 240 V it is 121 kA, at 440 V it is 52.5 kA, and at 690 V it is 11.9 kA.

Where can I buy 3VA1116-4EF32-0AD0 and how is it quoted?

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

Will 3VA1116-4EF32-0AD0 drop into a panel specified around 3VA1010-4ED32-0AC0?

Both are 3-pole SENTRON 3VA MCCBs with the same 76.2 mm width and 130 mm height, so the mounting footprint is identical. The key difference is the frame rating: this unit is 160 A with a TM240 release, while the 3VA1010-4ED32-0AC0 is a lower-current variant. If the panel bus and wiring are sized for 160 A, the swap is mechanical; if the original panel was built for a smaller frame, verify the lug ampacity and cable size before substituting.
