Product details

It carries a continuous current rating of 63 A at 40 °C, holding that rating up through 50 °C before a mild thermal derating begins — at 70 °C it still delivers 58 A, which is useful for a warm enclosure without upsizing the frame. Breaking capacity is the headline here: 220 kA at 240 V, 154 kA at 415 V, and 121 kA at 440 V. At 500 V and 690 V it still manages 17 kA, so it covers 480 V and 600 V class systems without a separate current-limiting fuse. The overcurrent release is a TM240 — thermal-magnetic, fixed at 240 A frame rating with the 63 A continuous pickup.

Width at 76.2 mm is three modules on a 25 mm grid — typical for a 3-pole MCCB in a Siemens SENTRON panelboard or a third-party DIN-rail adapter tray. The auxiliary switch bay accepts up to four HQ-style switches. No trip indicator on the breaker face itself — if you need remote trip indication, one of those auxiliary slots should carry a signal contact wired back to the PLC or HMI.

Frequently asked questions

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

It is rated for 220 kA at 240 V, which covers high-fault-current applications like transformer secondary mains or large busway feeds.

Where can I buy 3VA1163-6EF36-0AE0 and get current pricing?
