Product details

The Siemens 3VA2116-6HL32-0AA0 is a SENTRON 3VA2 molded case circuit breaker (MCCB) rated for 160 A continuous current, 3-pole, with an ETU320 electronic trip unit. At 240 V it interrupts 242 kA; at 415 V and 440 V it holds at 187 kA; at 500 V it still handles 121 kA. Only at 690 V does it drop to 3.7 kA — that tells you this is a 480 V class device, not a 690 V main.

That width is the critical dimension for a multi-pole lineup — three of these side by side take 315 mm of DIN-rail or panel-mount space.

Sourcing and lifecycle — active, no LTB pressure

Power loss at full rated current is 25.5 W — relevant for thermal calculations inside a sealed enclosure with other heat sources. Insulation voltage rated at 800 V, so it can sit on a 480 V or 600 V bus without derating the dielectric.

What the ETU320 trip unit does for you

The ETU320 is an electronic trip unit with adjustable overload (Ir) and short-time (Isd) pickups, plus fixed instantaneous (Ii). The trip indicator is absent on this order code, so a remote signal or visual flag won't come from the breaker itself; plan for a separate indicating light or a communication module if you need status.

Frequently asked questions

What are the key ratings for 3VA2116-6HL32-0AA0?

160 A continuous current, 3-pole, ETU320 electronic trip unit. Breaking capacity is 242 kA at 240 V, 187 kA at 415 V and 440 V, 121 kA at 500 V, and 3.7 kA at 690 V. Insulation voltage is 800 V. Operating temperature range is -25 °C to 70 °C.

Will 3VA2116-6HL32-0AA0 drop into a panel specified around 3VA2116-5HL32-0AK0?

Both are 3-pole, 160 A SENTRON 3VA2 breakers with the same physical footprint (105 × 181 × 86 mm). The -5HL32-0AK0 uses a different trip unit variant. The -6HL32-0AA0 should mount on the same busbar and DIN-rail pattern, but verify the trip unit settings and any accessory wiring differences before committing the swap.

Where can I buy 3VA2116-6HL32-0AA0 and get current pricing?

This part is sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent industrial distribution. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time — submit an RFQ for a firm number and lead time.

What compliance documentation does Siemens provide for this MCCB?

The SENTRON 3VA2 series carries IEC 60947-2 certification for molded case circuit breakers. Siemens provides a declaration of conformity covering the relevant standards. RoHS and REACH compliance documentation is available from the manufacturer upon request.
