It carries a 330 kA interrupting capacity at 240 V, stepping down to 242 kA at 415 V and 440 V, 187 kA at 500 V, and 3.7 kA at 690 V — high fault-current headroom for main or feeder protection where SCCR coordination matters. The breaker includes onboard communication capability, making it suitable for integration into monitored or smart distribution systems where remote trip indication or load data is required.
Depth of 86 mm leaves clearance for rear bus connections and wiring ducts.

Both are SENTRON 3VA frame breakers with the same 105 mm width, 181 mm height, and 86 mm depth footprint, so they share the same panel cutout and bus-bar spacing. The 3VA2116-7JQ36-0AA0 is a 160 A line-protection breaker with communication; verify that the peer's trip unit and auxiliary wiring match your application before direct swap.
Siemens SENTRON MCCBs carry IEC/EN 60947-2 certification and are typically RoHS and REACH compliant. Specific declarations are available on request with an RFQ.
