Product details

Its TM240 thermal-magnetic release handles overload and short-circuit response without external control power.

Interrupting capacity — selectivity headroom

For 500 V and 690 V systems the rating drops to 17 kA, which still covers most industrial distribution transformers up to that voltage class.

Thermal derating — what the 63 A rating actually means

At 55 °C it derates to 62 A, at 65 °C to 60 A, and at 70 °C to 58 A.

Panel fit — dimensions and mounting

The breaker measures 130 mm high, 76.2 mm wide, 70 mm deep — a 3-pole MCCB footprint that drops into standard SENTRON mounting plates or DIN-rail adapters.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy 3VA1163-5EF36-0KA0 and how do I get a price?

This part is sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time — submit an RFQ to get a firm date and price.

Will 3VA1163-5EF36-0KA0 drop into a panel specified around 3VA1110-5ED32-0AA0 without rewiring?

Both are 3-pole SENTRON MCCBs with the same 130 mm height and 76.2 mm width, so the mounting footprint matches. The 3VA1163-5EF36-0KA0 carries a 63 A TM240 release versus the 3VA1110's lower rating, so the load-side conductors and busbars must be sized for the higher continuous current — the mechanical fit is the same, but the electrical sizing is not.

What compliance documentation does this brand provide for 3VA1163-5EF36-0KA0?

Siemens SENTRON MCCBs carry IEC 60947-2 certification as standard. RoHS and REACH declarations are published on the Siemens Industry Online Support portal under the 3VA1 series documentation. UL listing varies by specific variant — verify the UL file number against the exact order code if UL 489 is required for the installation.
