Product details

The 3VA2116-5HL32-0AE0 is a SENTRON molded case circuit breaker rated for 160 A continuous current at 40 °C, with an ETU320 electronic trip unit for line protection. The 187 kA breaking capacity at 240 V and 121 kA at 415 V mean it can safely interrupt high-fault currents in a main distribution panel without upstream fuses needing to clear first — that's the kind of SCCR headroom that simplifies coordination studies.

The 160 A rating holds flat from 40 °C to 50 °C, then derates linearly to 136 A at 70 °C. If the panel ambient runs hot — say near a row of drives — the 154 A at 55 °C or 148 A at 60 °C figures are the ones to plan against, not the 160 A headline. Operating temperature spans -25 °C to 70 °C; storage range is -40 °C to 80 °C.

At 181 mm high, 105 mm wide, and 86 mm deep, this MCCB fits standard SENTRON 3VA mounting footprints. The 105 mm width is three-pole wide — verify the DIN-rail or screw-mount spacing in the existing panel before ordering.

Frequently asked questions

What is the breaking capacity of 3VA2116-5HL32-0AE0 at 415 V?

121 kA at 415 V, which covers most industrial secondary-distribution fault levels without requiring upstream current-limiting fuses.

What trip unit does this MCCB use?

The ETU320 electronic trip unit, configured for line protection (overload and short-circuit). No undervoltage release, no voltage trigger, no ground-fault monitoring.

Where can I buy 3VA2116-5HL32-0AE0 and how is it quoted?

Sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution. Availability and current pricing confirmed at quote time — submit an RFQ for a firm price and lead time.
