Product details

Breaking capacity is the headline: 187 kA at 240 V AC, 121 kA at 415 V and 440 V, 75.6 kA at 500 V, and 3.7 kA at 690 V. At 690 V the capacity drops to 3.7 kA, which still covers most industrial motor-circuit faults at that voltage level.

Integration notes

The breaker ships with two auxiliary switches (HQ design) and an undervoltage release fitted. No communication function or ground-fault monitoring is built in — this is a plain line-protection MCCB. If you need remote trip indication or ground-fault sensing, you add external modules or choose a different variant.

Frequently asked questions

How do I get current pricing and availability for 3VA2116-5HL32-0DC0?

Submit an RFQ through this listing. Pricing and stock are confirmed at quote time through independent distribution channels.

What is the closest functional second-source for 3VA2116-5HL32-0DC0?

The peer 3VA2116-5HL32-0AK0 shares the same 160 A frame and 3-pole line-protection design, but the 0DC0 variant includes the undervoltage release and two auxiliary switches pre-installed. The 0AK0 lacks those accessories — verify your BOM for UVR and aux contact requirements before substituting.

Will 3VA2116-5HL32-0DC0 drop into a panel specified around 3VA2116-5HL32-0AK0 without rewiring?

Yes, the physical dimensions are identical — 105 mm wide, 181 mm tall, 86 mm deep — so the mounting footprint and bus-bar positions match. The wiring difference is the UVR coil and auxiliary switch terminals that the 0DC0 adds; if the panel already has those wired, it drops in. If not, you have spare terminals.

What compliance documentation does Siemens provide for this MCCB?

Siemens SENTRON MCCBs typically carry UL 489, IEC 60947-2, and CSA C22.2 No. 5 certifications, plus RoHS and REACH declarations. Specific document numbers for this order code are confirmed at quote time.
