The Siemens SENTRON 3VA1163-1AA32-0AA0 is a 3-pole switch disconnector in MCCB design, rated 63 A continuously from 40 °C through 70 °C — meaning no derating is needed across the typical panel ambient range. The front terminal accepts busbar connections, and the IP40 front face protects against tool entry in a closed panel.
The 15 000 mechanical operating cycles typical life suits frequent manual isolation in distribution or machine disconnect applications. With no overload or short-circuit protection built in, this is a pure disconnector for use upstream of separate protective devices.
Panel integration
Busbar connection on the front terminal simplifies bus stacking in distribution panels. The optional motor drive (listed as an extension) allows remote switching without changing the base unit.
