Product details

The Siemens SENTRON 3VA2163-5HN36-0AC0 is a 3-pole molded case circuit breaker (MCCB) rated for 63 A continuous current at 40 °C, with a rated insulation voltage of 800 V. It's designed for line protection — the primary job is to protect cable and bus from overload and short circuit in a distribution panel. The interrupting ratings are the headline: 187 kA at 240 V AC, 121 kA at 415 V, and still 75.6 kA at 500 V.

That's unusual for an MCCB; most start dropping current above 40 °C. The 3-pole footprint is 105 mm wide, 181 mm tall, 86 mm deep — standard SENTRON 3VA2 frame size, so it drops into the same DIN-rail or screw-mount slot as its siblings.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy 3VA2163-5HN36-0AC0 and get a price?

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

Will 3VA2163-5HN36-0AC0 drop into a panel specified around 3VA2163-8HM32-0AA0?

Both are 3-pole SENTRON 3VA2 frame MCCBs with the same 105 mm width, 181 mm height, and 86 mm depth, so the physical footprint is identical. The difference is in the trip unit and interrupting rating — verify the trip curve and SCCR match your coordination study before swapping.

What are the key ratings of this MCCB?

63 A continuous at 40–70 °C, 3-pole, rated insulation voltage 800 V, interrupting capacity 187 kA at 240 V AC, 121 kA at 415 V, 75.6 kA at 500 V. Includes 2 auxiliary switches HQ.
