Product details

The Siemens SENTRON 3VA2116-5JQ32-0DC0 is a 3-pole molded case circuit breaker (MCCB) rated for line protection, carrying a continuous current of 160 A across the full ambient range from 40 °C to 70 °C — no derating needed up to that ceiling, which simplifies panel thermal calculations. The interrupting capacity at 240 V is 187 kA, dropping to 121 kA at 415 V and 440 V, then to 75.6 kA at 500 V, and 3.7 kA at 690 V. The minimum adjustable trip is 240 A; the maximum is 1 600 A, giving a wide band for coordination studies. The communication function (Ethernet or fieldbus via an optional module) allows remote trip indication and status monitoring, which is useful for a line-down diagnostic or SCADA integration.

Maximum power loss is 28 W, which should be factored into enclosure ventilation if the breaker is in a sealed cabinet with other heat sources.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy 3VA2116-5JQ32-0DC0 and how is it quoted?

This part is sourced to order against an RFQ through independent distribution. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time.

What is the breaking capacity of 3VA2116-5JQ32-0DC0 at 240 V?

The interrupting capacity is 187 kA at 240 V, which is suitable for high-fault service entrances.

Does 3VA2116-5JQ32-0DC0 include an undervoltage release?

Yes, it includes an undervoltage release (UVR) that drops the load if supply voltage falls below a set threshold.
