Product details

The Siemens 3VA1163-5EF32-0CH0 is a SENTRON 3-pole molded case circuit breaker rated for 63 A continuous at 40 °C, with no derating needed up to 50 °C — it holds 63 A across that range. The interrupting capacity is 187 kA at 240 V, stepping down to 121 kA at 415 V, 75.6 kA at 440 V, and 17 kA at 500 V and 690 V — this is a high-breaking-capacity device sized for fault currents on large distribution transformers or close-coupled switchgear. The UVR means the breaker trips when control voltage drops, which is standard for emergency-stop or safety-related disconnect circuits.

The breaker measures 130 mm tall, 76.2 mm wide, and 70 mm deep — a 3-pole frame that fits standard Siemens 3VA1 panel footprints and busbar systems. Depth of 70 mm means it clears most gland plates and backpanel wiring ducts without interference. The 3VA1 series uses screw-clamp terminals; wire range and torque values are on the nameplate.

Frequently asked questions

How do I get current pricing and availability for 3VA1163-5EF32-0CH0?

Submit an RFQ with your quantity and target delivery date — we source this active part through standard distribution and confirm pricing and availability at quote time.

What is 3VA1163-5EF32-0CH0's listed depth and width?

Depth is 70 mm and width is 76.2 mm — the 3-pole frame fits standard Siemens 3VA1 panel cutouts and busbar systems.

Will 3VA1163-5EF32-0CH0 drop into a panel specified around 3VA1110-5ED36-0AC0 without rewiring?

Both are 3-pole SENTRON 3VA1 frame MCCBs with the same 76.2 mm width per pole and 70 mm depth, so the mechanical footprint is identical. The 3VA1163-5EF32-0CH0 carries a 63 A continuous rating versus the lower-rated 3VA1110 variant, so verify the load current and cable sizing before swapping — the busbar and lug connections are the same pattern.
