Product details

The 187 kA breaking capacity at 240 V tells you it can interrupt a fault up to that level without the arc re-striking; at 415 V that figure is 121 kA, at 440 V it's 75.6 kA, and at 500 V or 690 V it holds at 17 kA. That's a high-interrupting rating for a frame this size — it's built for high-fault locations like a transformer secondary or a service entrance.

The 80 A rating is the nominal frame current, but the breaker's actual continuous current depends on ambient temperature. At 55 °C it's 158 A, at 60 °C it's 155 A, at 65 °C it's 153 A, and at 70 °C it's 150 A. The maximum power loss is 38 W, which is modest for a 4-pole breaker at this current; helps keep the internal temperature rise manageable.

That's a 4-inch wide footprint on the DIN rail or panel-mount plate — standard for a 4-pole MCCB in this frame class. Keep it simple: wire it, torque it, move on.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy 3VA1116-5FE42-0AA0 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 — no stock count or lead-time number is published here.

What is the breaking capacity of 3VA1116-5FE42-0AA0 at different voltages?

At 240 V it's 187 kA, at 415 V it's 121 kA, at 440 V it's 75.6 kA, and at 500 V or 690 V it's 17 kA. These are the maximum fault currents the breaker can safely interrupt at those voltages.

Will 3VA1116-5FE42-0AA0 drop into a panel specified around 3VA1112-5EE32-0AA0 without rewiring?

Both are 4-pole SENTRON MCCBs in the same 3VA frame family, so the mounting footprint and bus-bar spacing are identical. The 3VA1116-5FE42-0AA0 is rated 80 A versus the 3VA1112-5EE32-0AA0's lower current, so as long as the upstream protection and conductor sizing support 80 A, it's a mechanical drop-in. No rewiring needed.

What compliance documentation does Siemens provide for 3VA1116-5FE42-0AA0?

As a SENTRON MCCB, it carries the usual Siemens declarations for RoHS, REACH, and CE marking. UL and IEC certifications are standard for the 3VA series. Specific document downloads are available through Siemens' support portal.
