Product details

The 3VA2163-5HL36-0BL0: The interrupting capacity is not a single number — it is a curve across system voltages: 187 kA at 240 V, 121 kA at 415 V and 440 V, 75.6 kA at 500 V, and 3.7 kA at 690 V. The sharp drop at 690 V (3.7 kA) is typical for a 3-pole MCCB on a 690 V line — the arc-extinction challenge at that voltage limits the rating, so if your system runs 690 V, verify the available fault current is under that threshold.

The ETU320 trip unit is electronic, not thermal-magnetic, so the trip curve is programmable via the front interface — no heater elements to age, but the power loss is 6.5 W maximum, which adds to the enclosure's thermal budget.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy 3VA2163-5HL36-0BL0 and how do I get a price?

This part is sourced and quoted to order through independent distribution. Submit an RFQ for current pricing and availability — confirmed at quote time.

What is the closest functional second-source to 3VA2163-5HL36-0BL0?

The peer 3VA2163-5HL32-0JB0 shares the same 3VA2 frame and 63 A rating but uses a different trip unit (ETU320 vs. a different variant) and a different auxiliary contact configuration. The physical footprint (105 mm width, 181 mm height, 86 mm depth) is identical, so it will drop into the same panel cutout without rewiring, but verify the trip curve and aux contact count match your protection scheme.

What compliance documentation does Siemens provide for 3VA2163-5HL36-0BL0?

As a standard-catalog SENTRON MCCB, this part is designed to meet IEC 60947-2 and UL 489 standards. RoHS and REACH compliance declarations are available from Siemens. The rated insulation voltage is 800 V, and the interrupting capacities listed (187 kA at 240 V, etc.) are tested per those standards.
