Product details

The 3VA1163-5EF46-0AA0 is a Siemens SENTRON 4-pole molded case circuit breaker rated 63 A continuous at 40 °C, with the TM240 thermal-magnetic release handling overload and short-circuit protection for line protection duty. At 440 V it's rated 75.6 kA, and at 500 V or 690 V it drops to 17 kA — still respectable for most motor control center applications, but you'll want to verify the available fault current at the point of installation. The 63 A rating holds steady up to 50 °C; above that it derates smoothly to 58 A at 70 °C, which the spec table lays out in 5 °C steps.

This MCCB measures 70 mm deep by 101.6 mm wide by 130 mm tall — a compact footprint that fits standard panel-mount cutouts for 4-pole breakers in this class.

Frequently asked questions

How do I get current pricing and availability for 3VA1163-5EF46-0AA0?

Pricing and stock levels are confirmed at quote time. Submit an RFQ through our sourcing desk and we'll return current availability and a firm price for your quantity.

What is the breaking capacity of this MCCB at 415 V?

At 415 V AC the 3VA1163-5EF46-0AA0 is rated for 121 kA breaking capacity, which covers most industrial distribution panels with high fault current.

What overcurrent release does this breaker use?

It uses a TM240 thermal-magnetic release — a fixed thermal trip curve combined with a magnetic short-circuit pickup, designed for line protection duty in the SENTRON 3VA series.
