Product details

Rated insulation voltage is 800 V, and the breaker carries its full 63 A rating through 50 °C ambient, then derates to 60 A at 65 °C and 58 A at 70 °C. This is a line-protection design (not motor-protection), so the TM240 release is calibrated for feeder and distribution circuits.

The interrupting rating drops as system voltage rises: 121 kA at 240 V, 75.6 kA at 415 V, 52.5 kA at 440 V, and 11.9 kA at both 500 V and 690 V. For a 480 V panel (common in North America), the 52.5 kA at 440 V is the closest published figure — expect the actual rating at 480 V to sit between the 440 V and 500 V values. The 690 V rating of 11.9 kA confirms this breaker can serve 600 V class systems with adequate fault-current headroom for most industrial distributions.

The breaker measures 130 mm high, 76.2 mm wide, and 70 mm deep — a compact footprint for a 63 A MCCB. The 3-pole width (76.2 mm) matches the standard 3-module spacing for Siemens SENTRON enclosures, so it slots into a pre-bussed panel without re-drilling.

Frequently asked questions

What is the breaking capacity of this MCCB at 240 V?

121 kA at 240 V, which is the highest interrupting rating across its voltage range.

Where can I buy 3VA1163-4EF36-0AB0 and how is it quoted?

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

Does this breaker include auxiliary contacts?

It is designed for 2 auxiliary switches HP, which can be added for status feedback.
