Product details

Its interrupting capacity is specified per voltage: 187 kA at 240 V, 121 kA at 415 V, 75.6 kA at 440 V, and 17 kA at 690 V — these are the values that govern fault-clearing capability at the installed system voltage. The thermal derating curve is documented from 40 °C through 70 °C: the breaker carries the full 160 A up to 50 °C, then steps down to 153.6 A at 55 °C, 150.4 A at 60 °C, 147.2 A at 65 °C, and 144 A at 70 °C. Panel ambient temperature determines the actual continuous rating.

The integrated auxiliary trip is order code 3VA9608-0BB24. The undervoltage release is present as standard.

The 76.2 mm width corresponds to a 4-module DIN-rail footprint (18 mm per module), which governs spacing in the distribution board. This is a straightforward line-protection device for fixed-trip applications.

The trip indicator is present. No ground-fault monitoring version is fitted.

Frequently asked questions

What is the breaking capacity of 3VA1116-5EF32-0CH0 at different voltages?

The interrupting capacity is 187 kA at 240 V, 121 kA at 415 V, 75.6 kA at 440 V, and 17 kA at 690 V. These are the maximum fault currents the breaker can safely clear at the respective system voltages.

What are the physical dimensions of 3VA1116-5EF32-0CH0?

Depth is 70 mm, width is 76.2 mm (4-module DIN-rail footprint), and height is 130 mm.

Does 3VA1116-5EF32-0CH0 include an undervoltage release?

Yes, the breaker is fitted with an undervoltage release (UVR) as standard, designated as the auxiliary release type.

Where can I buy 3VA1116-5EF32-0CH0 and what is the lead time?

This part is sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time.
