Product details

The Siemens SENTRON 3VA1116-6EF36-0KH0 is a 3-pole molded case circuit breaker rated 160 A at 40 °C — that's the continuous current it carries without tripping in a 40 °C ambient. The interrupting ratings are the real story: 220 kA at 240 V, 154 kA at 415 V, 75.6 kA at 440 V, and 17 kA at 500 V and 690 V.

Deployment context

The 70 mm depth (2.76 in) and 130 mm height (5.12 in) mean it'll drop into most existing SENTRON or third-party enclosures without a footprint change.

The shunt trip allows remote tripping via a control signal — useful for emergency-stop circuits or supervisory systems. The auxiliary switches provide status feedback (open/closed/tripped) to a PLC or indicator panel. No undervoltage release is fitted, so if you need UVR for undervoltage protection, you'll add that as a separate accessory.

Frequently asked questions

What is the breaking capacity of 3VA1116-6EF36-0KH0 at 240 V?

220 kA at 240 V, which is very high — suitable for high-fault-current installations like transformer secondaries.

What is the rated current of this MCCB at 40 °C?

160 A continuous at 40 °C ambient; it derates to 150 A at 70 °C.

Where can I buy 3VA1116-6EF36-0KH0 and how is it quoted?

Sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time.

Does 3VA1116-6EF36-0KH0 include a shunt trip?

Yes, it comes with a shunt trip (STL) release plus 2 auxiliary switches and 1 trip alarm switch.
