The Siemens 3VA2010-5HL36-0DA0 is a SENTRON 3VA2 molded case circuit breaker (MCCB) rated for 100 A continuous current, verified across the full operating temperature range from -25 °C to 70 °C with no derating — the 100 A holds at every 5 °C increment per the spec table. That means this breaker delivers its full nameplate rating in a warm panel without needing to oversize for ambient conditions. Breaking capacity is voltage-dependent: 187 kA at 240 V, 121 kA at 415 V and 440 V, 75.6 kA at 500 V, and 3 kA at 690 V. For a 480 V panel feed, the 121 kA at 440 V figure is the closest published value and indicates substantial fault-current headroom for most industrial service-entrance or distribution applications. This is a 3-pole, line-protection design (not feeder or motor-protection profile) and ships with an integrated undervoltage release (UVR) as the auxiliary release. No communication function, no ground-fault monitoring, and no trip indicator on this variant.
Dimensions and panel fit
The 3VA2010-5HL36-0DA0 measures 105 mm wide, 181 mm high, and 86 mm deep. The 105 mm width is standard for a 3-pole MCCB in this frame class — verify the existing panel cutout or mounting base matches before committing the BOM line. Rated insulation voltage is 800 V, and the maximum power loss at rated current is 16 W — a figure to factor into enclosure thermal calculations if the panel is densely populated.
