Product details

Rated insulation voltage is 800 V, and the breaker holds its 63 A rating from 40 °C up through 50 °C without derating; at 55 °C it steps down to 60.6 A and continues a linear derating curve to 53.6 A at 70 °C.

Breaking capacity across voltage levels

This breaker's interrupting performance drops as system voltage rises: 187 kA at 240 V, 121 kA at both 415 V and 440 V, 79 kA at 500 V, and 4.25 kA at 690 V.

The shunt trip (STL) is built in, not a field-add-on — part number 3VA9688-0BL33 for the integrated auxiliary trip. It's a straight line-protection MCCB with remote trip capability and basic alarm contacts.

Frequently asked questions

What is the breaking capacity of this breaker at 480 V?

At 500 V it interrupts 79 kA, which covers the 480 V class with margin. At 415 V and 440 V it handles 121 kA.

What trip unit does 3VA2163-5HL36-0KH0 use?

It uses the ETU320 electronic trip unit — an adjustable thermal-magnetic replacement with LSI protection curves (long-time, short-time, instantaneous).

Does this MCCB include a shunt trip?

Yes, a shunt trip (STL) is integrated from the factory for remote opening via a control voltage.

Where can I buy 3VA2163-5HL36-0KH0?

We source it to order against an RFQ through our independent distribution network. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time.
