Product details

Its continuous current holds at 63 A across the full 40 °C to 70 °C ambient range — no derating needed up to that ceiling, which simplifies panel layout in warm enclosures. The interrupting ratings are the real differentiator: 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. At 415 V, 121 kA means this breaker can clear a fault current that would vaporize a standard 50 kA-rated unit — it's sized for high-capacity transformer secondaries or large motor banks where the available fault current is severe. The 3.7 kA at 690 V is the ceiling for that voltage class; verify your system's prospective short-circuit current at 690 V before specifying.

Dimensions are 105 mm wide, 181 mm high, 86 mm deep — a standard SENTRON 3VA frame footprint. The 86 mm depth leaves clearance for rear-access wiring; verify gland-plate depth against the enclosure's internal usable space. The shunt trip and auxiliary switch wiring exits the top, so allow bend radius above the breaker.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy 3VA2163-5HN36-0HH0 and how do I get a price?

We source this part through independent distribution. Submit an RFQ — availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time.

What are the interrupting ratings at 415 V and 690 V?

At 415 V it interrupts 121 kA; at 690 V the rating drops to 3.7 kA. The 690 V figure is the voltage ceiling — confirm your system's prospective fault current at that level.

Does the 63 A rating derate at higher ambient temperatures?

No derating needed from 40 °C through 70 °C — the breaker holds 63 A continuous across that entire ambient range.
