Product details

The Siemens SENTRON 3VA2116-5HL36-0DC0 is a 3-pole molded case circuit breaker (MCCB) rated for 160 A continuous current across the full ambient range from 40 °C to 70 °C — no derating needed up to that ceiling. Breaking capacity hits 187 kA at 240 V AC, 121 kA at 415/440 V, 75.6 kA at 500 V, and 3.7 kA at 690 V, so it handles high-fault utility feeds or transformer secondaries without cascading upstream.

The undervoltage release trips on loss of control voltage; verify the release coil is powered from a stable 24 VDC supply if used as a remote shunt. Two auxiliary switches HQ provide status feedback for PLC or indication circuits.

Frequently asked questions

How do I get current pricing and availability for 3VA2116-5HL36-0DC0?

Submit an RFQ through this listing. The part is sourced and quoted to order; current pricing and availability are confirmed at quote time.

Will 3VA2116-5HL36-0DC0 drop into a panel that was specified around 3VA2116-5HL32-0AK0 without rewiring?

Both are 3-pole SENTRON MCCBs in the same frame size, so the mounting footprint and bus-bar pitch are identical. The 5HL36 variant carries a higher 160 A rating and includes an undervoltage release, while the 5HL32 may be a lower-rated or different-accessory version — check the existing panel's continuous current and release requirements before swapping.

What compliance documentation does this brand provide for 3VA2116-5HL36-0DC0?

Siemens SENTRON MCCBs are typically supplied with CE, UL, and CSA certifications; RoHS and REACH declarations are available through the manufacturer's documentation portal. Specific certificates for this order code can be requested with the RFQ.
