Product details

At 70 mm deep, 101.6 mm wide, and 130 mm tall, it fits standard 4-pole MCCB footprints in Siemens SENTRON panelboards. Front-side IP40 protection handles dry indoor environments; no trip indicator or undervoltage release is fitted on this variant.

The breaker carries 16 A without derating up to 55 °C ambient. Above that, it drops to 15 A at 60 °C, 65 °C, and 70 °C — a 6% reduction that matters if the panel runs hot near a transformer or drive bank. Maximum power loss is 10.6 W at rated current, which helps with enclosure heat budget.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy 3VA1196-6GF46-0AA0 and how do I get a price?

The part is sourced to order against an RFQ through independent distribution. Submit a request for quote; availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time.

What is 3VA1196-6GF46-0AA0's listed depth and width?

Depth is 70 mm, width is 101.6 mm, and height is 130 mm.

What is the short-circuit breaking capacity of this MCCB?

Breaking capacity is 220 kA at 240 V AC, 154 kA at 415 V AC, 121 kA at 440 V AC, and 17 kA at both 500 V and 690 V AC.

Does the 3VA1196-6GF46-0AA0 have the same footprint as the 3VA1110-5ED32-0AA0?

Both are 4-pole SENTRON MCCBs with similar dimensions — the 3VA1196-6GF46-0AA0 is a higher-interrupting variant (220 kA vs lower ratings on the 3VA1110 series). Panel cutout and busbar spacing are compatible, but verify the short-circuit rating required for your application before substituting.
