Product details

Siemens SENTRON 3VA2116-6HL32-0CH0 — 160 A MCCB with Undervoltage Release

It carries a breaking capacity of 242 kA at 240 V AC, 187 kA at 415 V and 440 V, 121 kA at 500 V, and 3.7 kA at 690 V — so the interrupting rating you need to match against the available fault current at the installation point varies significantly with system voltage.

The 3-pole construction suits three-phase line protection; the unit is not fitted with ground-fault monitoring or communication functions, so it is a straightforward thermal-magnetic or electronic trip MCCB for feeder protection. The auxiliary contacts provide status feedback for PLC or indication circuits.

As a SENTRON MCCB, it mounts into standard switchboard or panelboard cutouts with screw-clamp or plug-in connections depending on the base. The 105 mm width and 86 mm depth fit typical MCCB slots in distribution panels; verify the busbar or cable connection method against the panel's existing design.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy 3VA2116-6HL32-0CH0 and get a price?

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

What is the breaking capacity of 3VA2116-6HL32-0CH0 at different voltages?

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. The interrupting rating drops significantly above 500 V, so verify the available fault current at your system voltage.

What auxiliary switches and releases are included with this MCCB?

It includes an undervoltage release (UVR) and a configuration of 2 auxiliary switches plus 1 trip alarm switch (HQ type). The UVR trips the breaker on loss of control voltage; the auxiliary switches provide status feedback.
