Product details

The Siemens SENTRON 3VA2116-6HL32-0HA0 is a 3-pole molded case circuit breaker (MCCB) designed for line protection, rated 160 A continuous current and delivering a 242 kA interrupting capacity at 240 V. That interrupting rating drops to 187 kA at 415 V and 440 V, and 121 kA at 500 V — still high enough for most secondary distribution panels. At 690 V it's rated 3.7 kA, which narrows the application to low-fault locations on 690 V systems.

The supplied basic switch is 3VA21166HL320AA0, which means the core interrupter is the same across several 3VA2116 variants; the order code suffix adds the shunt trip and line-protection design.

Frequently asked questions

Will 3VA2116-6HL32-0HA0 drop into a panel specified around 3VA2116-5HL32-0AK0 without rewiring?

Both share the same 3-pole frame, 160 A rating, and similar interrupting capacities, but the -6HL32-0HA0 includes a shunt trip release (STL) while the -5HL32-0AK0 does not. If the original panel has no provision for the shunt trip coil wiring, the -6HL32-0HA0 will physically fit the same mounting footprint but requires an extra control circuit. Verify the auxiliary release wiring before swapping.

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

242 kA at 240 V. At 415 V and 440 V it is 187 kA, at 500 V it is 121 kA, and at 690 V it is 3.7 kA.
