Product details

Max power dissipation is 28 W, so thermal budgeting in a sealed enclosure is manageable with basic ventilation.

What the interrupting ratings mean for coordination

The 187 kA at 240 V and 121 kA at 415 V put this breaker in the high-interrupting category for a 160 A frame. That matters when you're coordinating with downstream feeders: you can place it close to a transformer secondary without worrying about let-through exceeding its rating. The 75.6 kA at 500 V and 3.7 kA at 690 V cover the less common higher-voltage industrial feeds — most panel designs won't push fault current that high at those voltages, but the rating is there if the utility impedance is low. Compared to a sibling like the 3VA2116-5HL32-0AK0, the -0BL0 carries the same 160 A frame and 3-pole count but adds the full auxiliary switch package and UVR. If your BOM already has those as separate add-ons, the -0AK0 saves panel space; if you need them integrated, this -0BL0 is the cleaner pick — one line item, one wiring harness.
