Product details

What this MCCB does on the line

The Siemens 3VA2116-5HL32-0KA0 is a SENTRON molded case circuit breaker rated for 160 A continuous current across the full ambient range from 40 °C to 70 °C — no derating needed up to that ceiling. The interrupting capacity hits 187 kA at 240 V, 121 kA at 415 V, and still delivers 75.6 kA at 500 V; at 690 V it drops to 3.7 kA, so keep that in mind for higher-voltage taps.

The breaker measures 105 mm wide, 181 mm tall, and 86 mm deep — a standard 3-pole MCCB footprint that drops into most SENTRON panelboards without re-drilling. The shunt trip release is factory-installed; no field wiring of a separate undervoltage module needed.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy 3VA2116-5HL32-0KA0 and how do I get a price?

This part is sourced to order against an RFQ through independent distribution. Submit a request for a firm quote; availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time.

Will 3VA2116-5HL32-0KA0 drop into a panel that was specified around 3VA2116-5HL32-0AK0 without rewiring?

Both share the same 3-pole 160 A frame and SENTRON footprint, so mechanical fit is identical. The difference is the auxiliary release: this one carries a shunt trip (STL), while the -0AK0 variant may have a different release option. Check the release type on your existing panel wiring before swapping.

What is the breaking capacity of this MCCB at 240 V?

187 kA at 240 V, which covers most low-voltage fault scenarios in industrial distribution.
