Product details

The interrupting capacity hits 187 kA at 240 V, 121 kA at 415 V, 75.6 kA at 440 V, and 17 kA at 690 V — so it handles high-fault panels without cascading upstream. The 3-pole frame and IP40 front protection make it a straightforward fit for a standard distribution board or motor control center.

Thermal derating — what 160 A really means at panel temperature

At 55 °C it derates to 153.6 A, at 60 °C to 150.4 A, at 65 °C to 147.2 A, and at 70 °C to 144 A.

Auxiliary contacts and release options

The TM240 release is fixed, not adjustable for short-time delay.

Frequently asked questions

How do I get current pricing and availability for 3VA1116-5EF32-0AH0?

Submit an RFQ through the storefront. Pricing and stock are confirmed at quote time against current distribution availability.

Will 3VA1116-5EF32-0AH0 drop into a panel specified around 3VA1112-5EF32-0CA0 without rewiring?

Both breakers share the same 3-pole SENTRON 3VA frame — same width (76.2 mm), depth (70 mm), and height (130 mm). The mounting footprint and bus-bar spacing are identical, so it's a mechanical drop-in. The difference is the continuous current rating: 160 A on this one versus the lower-rated 3VA1112 variant.

What compliance documentation does this brand provide for 3VA1116-5EF32-0AH0?

As a Siemens SENTRON product, it carries UL, CSA, and IEC certifications typical for molded case circuit breakers. RoHS and REACH declarations are available through Siemens' documentation portal.
