Product details

The Siemens SENTRON 3VA1216-4EF32-0BA0 is a 3-pole molded case circuit breaker (MCCB) rated for line protection, carrying a continuous current Iu of 160 A at 40 °C through 50 °C ambient — no derating needed in a standard 50 °C panel environment. At 55 °C it still holds 155.6 A, and at 70 °C it delivers 142.4 A, so the thermal curve is flat across most normal operating conditions.

Built-in undervoltage release — no add-on module needed

No auxiliary contact version is fitted, and there is no communication module or ground-fault monitoring on this build.

Dimensions: 105 mm wide, 158 mm high, 70 mm deep. Depth of 70 mm means it clears most standard gland-plate depths without protruding past the enclosure door.

Frequently asked questions

What is the interrupting capacity of 3VA1216-4EF32-0BA0 at 415 V?

75.6 kA at 415 V AC, which provides strong selectivity headroom on typical 50 kA or 65 kA services.

Does this MCCB include an undervoltage release?

Yes, it ships with an integrated undervoltage release (UVR), part code 3VA9608-0BB11, so no separate add-on module is required.

Where can I buy the 3VA1216-4EF32-0BA0?

Sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution; availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time.
