Product details

The ETU320 release provides adjustable thermal-magnetic or electronic protection curves, so you can coordinate downstream breakers without nuisance trips. The 63 A rating holds flat from 40 °C up to 50 °C, then derates linearly to 53.55 A at 70 °C — so in a warm enclosure near the top of the ambient range you still have headroom for a 50 A continuous load.

Panel fit and mounting — what the dimensions mean for your layout

That 105 mm width is the standard 4-module (4 x 27 mm) footprint for SENTRON 3VA breakers in this frame size — it clips onto the DIN rail or mounts directly to a backplate with the supplied screws.

How it compares to a common sibling — 3VA1010-2ED32-0JA0

The 3VA1010-2ED32-0JA0 is a smaller-frame 3VA (100 A frame, typically 3-pole) with a lower interrupting rating and a thermal-magnetic release. The 3VA2163-5HL32-0KH0 uses the larger 3VA2 frame (160 A frame) with an ETU320 electronic trip, giving you adjustable protection curves and higher SCCR — 187 kA vs roughly 65 kA at 240 V for the 3VA1010. If your panel was specified around the 3VA1010-2ED32-0JA0, this 3VA2163 will not drop in without rewiring: the 3VA2 frame is physically larger (105 mm wide vs 70 mm for the 3VA1 frame), and the terminal spacing differs. Stick with the original frame size unless you are redesigning the panel layout.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy 3VA2163-5HL32-0KH0 and what is the lead time?

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

Will 3VA2163-5HL32-0KH0 drop into a panel specified around 3VA1010-2ED32-0JA0 without rewiring?

No. The 3VA2163 is 105 mm wide versus 70 mm for the 3VA1010 frame, and terminal spacing differs. You would need to rework the busbar connections and enlarge the panel cutout or use an adapter plate.

What compliance documentation does Siemens provide for this MCCB?

Siemens SENTRON 3VA series breakers carry IEC/EN 60947-2 certification and are UL 489 listed (check the specific UL file for the 3VA2 frame). RoHS and REACH declarations are available from Siemens documentation. The evidence does not list a specific certificate number, but the brand standard is full compliance for industrial distribution.
