Product details

The Siemens SENTRON 3VA1196-3EF32-0KA0 is a 3-pole molded case circuit breaker (MCCB) rated 16 A continuous at 40 °C ambient — no derating needed until you hit 60 °C, where it drops to 15 A. Breaking capacity hits 75.6 kA at 240 V, 52.5 kA at 415 V, and still holds 11.9 kA up at 690 V, so it handles high-fault industrial panels without cascading upstream.

At 76.2 mm wide, 130 mm tall, and 70 mm deep, this MCCB occupies a standard 3-pole MCCB footprint — it mounts on a DIN rail or direct panel with the SENTRON mounting accessories.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy 3VA1196-3EF32-0KA0 and get a price?

This MCCB is sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time — submit an RFQ for a firm number.

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

75.6 kA at 240 V, derating to 52.5 kA at 415 V and 11.9 kA at 690 V. That's a high-interrupting rating suitable for main or sub-feed breakers in industrial panels.

Does this breaker include a shunt trip?

Yes, the design of the auxiliary release is a shunt trip (STL), allowing remote tripping via a control voltage. The undervoltage release is not included.

What compliance documentation is available for this part?

As a Siemens SENTRON MCCB, it carries the standard IEC/UL certifications for the series. Specific RoHS, REACH, and UL file numbers are part of the manufacturer's declaration package available on request.
