What this 63 A MCCB carries
The Siemens SENTRON 3VA2063-7HM36-0AA0 is a 3-pole molded case circuit breaker rated 63 A continuous across the full operating range from 40 °C to 70 °C — no derate needed as the panel warms up. Breaking capacity hits 330 kA at 240 V, dropping to 242 kA at 415 V and 440 V, then 187 kA at 500 V, and 3 kA at 690 V. That 330 kA figure at 240 V is the headline number for high-fault industrial services where upstream transformer capacity is massive.
Panel fit and physical constraints
Dimensions are 105 mm wide, 181 mm tall, 86 mm deep — that 86 mm depth is the dimension that matters when the breaker sits in a deep panel with a rear cable trough. Front protection is IP40, so it's fine for general indoor panel use but not washdown. The 3 W maximum power loss means minimal heat rejection into the enclosure. Optional motor drive is available as a field-fit accessory if remote switching is needed later.
Sourcing and lifecycle posture
This is a current-production part — no end-of-life notice on record. The SENTRON 3VA series is Siemens' mainline MCCB platform, so spares and replacements are standard catalog items. For volume or BOM-level pricing, this is quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution channels. Availability and current pricing confirmed at quote time.
