The 3VA1116-5EE32-0BC0: Derating is baked in: at 55 °C it still carries 158 A, at 70 °C it holds 150 A — so you don't lose much headroom in a warm enclosure. Depth is 70 mm, width 76.2 mm, height 130 mm — a compact footprint that fits standard Siemens 3VA panel-mounting patterns.
Mounts in a standard Siemens 3VA panel cutout or on a mounting plate — no DIN-rail adapter needed for this frame size.
At 240 VAC it interrupts 187 kA, at 415 VAC 121 kA, at 440 VAC 75.6 kA, and at 500/690 VAC 17 kA.
