Product details

The Siemens SENTRON 3VA2116-6HN32-0HC0 is a 3-pole molded case circuit breaker (MCCB) rated for 160 A continuous current at 40 °C through 70 °C — no derating needed across that band, which simplifies panel sizing for warm enclosures. Its interrupting capacity hits 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.

Built-in accessories and panel integration

The shunt trip allows a safety relay or emergency-stop circuit to open the breaker remotely — common in machinery or conveyor lines where a hard-wired trip is required. No undervoltage release is fitted, so the breaker does not drop out on voltage sag; that is a deliberate choice for processes that must ride through dips.

Frequently asked questions

What is the breaking capacity of 3VA2116-6HN32-0HC0 at different voltages?

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 — these are the maximum interrupting ratings for this 3-pole frame.

What accessories are included with this MCCB?

It comes with a shunt trip (STL) for remote tripping and two HQ auxiliary switches for status signaling. No undervoltage release or ground-fault monitoring is fitted.
