Product details

It carries a 187 kA interrupting rating at 240 V AC and 121 kA at 415/440 V, giving you serious fault-current headroom for high-capacity switchboards or transformer secondaries. The 105 mm width and 86 mm depth mean it slots into standard SENTRON mounting footprints without re-spacing the busbars.

This breaker's short-circuit capacity drops as system voltage climbs: 187 kA at 240 V, 121 kA at 415/440 V, 75.6 kA at 500 V, and 3.7 kA at 690 V.

Thermal performance and power loss

Maximum power loss is 25.5 W, which matters for heat buildup in a densely packed panel. If you're stacking several of these in a row, factor that dissipation into your ventilation or forced-air calculation.

Frequently asked questions

How do I get current pricing and availability for 3VA2116-5HL32-0AF0?

Submit an RFQ through this listing. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time through our sourcing channel.

Will 3VA2116-5HL32-0AF0 drop into a panel that was specified around 3VA2116-5HL32-0AK0 without rewiring?

Both are 3-pole SENTRON MCCBs with the same 105 mm width and 86 mm depth, so the mechanical footprint and busbar spacing are identical. The difference is in the trip unit or accessory configuration — verify the 0AK0 variant's trip curve and auxiliary switch arrangement against this 0AF0 before committing the BOM line.

What compliance documentation does this brand provide for 3VA2116-5HL32-0AF0?

Siemens SENTRON MCCBs carry UL, CSA, and IEC certifications as standard for the series. RoHS and REACH declarations are available through Siemens' documentation portal.
