Product details

Breaking capacity hits 187 kA at 240 V, 121 kA at 415 V, 75.6 kA at 440 V, and 17 kA at 690 V — numbers that tell you this breaker is built for high-fault panels where the available short-circuit current is substantial.

The 63 A continuous current holds flat from 40 °C to 50 °C; above that it derates stepwise — 60.48 A at 55 °C, 59.22 A at 60 °C, 57.96 A at 65 °C, 56.7 A at 70 °C. The IP40 front protection means it's fine in a clean indoor enclosure; no washdown rating here.

Auxiliary and undervoltage release

This version carries an undervoltage release (UVR) — if the control voltage drops, the breaker trips. That's useful for emergency-stop circuits or undervoltage protection on a machine. The trip indicator on the front gives a local visual flag.

The latching endurance is rated at 15 000 operations, which is typical for a distribution breaker — not a switching device, but it handles occasional manual operations without issue.

Frequently asked questions

What is the breaking capacity of 3VA1163-5EE32-0BH0 at 415 V?

121 kA at 415 V. At 240 V it is 187 kA, at 440 V it is 75.6 kA, and at 690 V it is 17 kA.

Where can I buy 3VA1163-5EE32-0BH0?

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

What does the TM220 release mean on this breaker?

TM220 is a thermal-magnetic overcurrent release — the thermal element handles overloads, the magnetic element handles short-circuits. No electronic adjustment; fixed settings.

Does 3VA1163-5EE32-0BH0 include an undervoltage release?

Yes, it is equipped with an undervoltage release (UVR) that trips the breaker when the control voltage drops.
