The thermal derating curve is flat up to 50 °C — still 160 A — then drops to 158 A at 55 °C, 155 A at 60 °C, 153 A at 65 °C, and 150 A at 70 °C. The auxiliary contact version ships with 2 HQ switches, giving status feedback for the open/closed position.
The 3VA1116-5ED36-0AC0 measures 130 mm high, 3 in wide, and 2.8 in deep. The 3-pole footprint matches the SENTRON 3VA family, so busbar and cable connections follow the same pattern as other 160 A frames in the range.
