Product details

MCCB for line protection with UVR

Its interrupting capacity reaches 121 kA at 240 V, 75.6 kA at 415 V, 25 kA at 440 V, and 11.9 kA at 690 V — numbers that tell you the fault-clearing headroom at your service voltage without cascading upstream.

Derating begins at 55 °C (155.6 A), dropping to 142.4 A at 70 °C.

The integrated auxiliary trip order code is 3VA9608-0BB11 — order that separately if you need a shunt trip or additional alarm contact. Front face protection is IP40, adequate for a clean indoor panel.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy 3VA1216-4EF32-0BH0 and get a price?

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 commercial offer.

What is the closest functional second-source for 3VA1216-4EF32-0BH0?

Within the SENTRON family, the 3VA1112-5EF32-0CA0 is a close peer but carries a lower current rating and different release. The 3VA1216-4EF32-0BH0 is the 160 A TM240 variant with UVR; verify the specific rating and accessories before substituting — the footprint and pole count are the same, but the release curve and aux contact count differ.

What compliance documentation does this MCCB carry?

As a Siemens SENTRON product, it is designed to meet IEC 60947-2 and relevant UL/CSA standards for molded case circuit breakers. Specific declarations (RoHS, REACH, CE, UKCA, EAC) are available in the manufacturer's download center under the 3VA1216-4EF32-0BH0 document package.
