Product details

The Siemens SENTRON 3VA2163-5HN36-0JL0 is a 3-pole molded case circuit breaker (MCCB) rated for 63 A continuous current at up to 70 °C ambient — no derating needed across the full temperature range. The 187 kA interrupting capacity at 240 V AC gives it headroom for high-fault installations, and it still delivers 121 kA at 415 V and 75.6 kA at 500 V. At 690 V the rating drops to 3.7 kA, so it is not a primary choice for 690 V main breakers.

Rated at 63 A from 40 °C all the way to 70 °C — that is a flat thermal curve, so you do not have to derate for elevated ambient temperatures inside a crowded enclosure. The 187 kA SCCR at 240 V means this breaker can safely interrupt a fault current up to that level without welding contacts or venting arc gas into the panel; at 415 V it still handles 121 kA. Three poles cover three-phase line or feeder duty. That gives you remote status and trip indication without adding external relay logic.

Dimensions: 105 mm wide, 181 mm tall, 86 mm deep. Maximum power loss is 4 W, so heat buildup in a sealed cabinet is minimal. No communication module is fitted; this is a standalone breaker with hardwired auxiliary contacts and shunt trip only.

Frequently asked questions

What is the breaking capacity of this MCCB at 415 V?

At 415 V AC the interrupting capacity is 121 kA. At 240 V it is 187 kA, at 500 V it is 75.6 kA, and at 690 V it drops to 3.7 kA.

Where can I buy 3VA2163-5HN36-0JL0 and how is it quoted?

This breaker is sourced to order through independent distribution. Submit an RFQ for current pricing and availability; volume commitments and blanket orders are quoted on request.

What auxiliary switches come with this breaker?

It includes two auxiliary switches, one trip alarm switch, and one electrical alarm switch (HQ type), plus a shunt trip release (STL).

Will 3VA2163-5HN36-0JL0 fit in a panel designed for a 3VA1110-5EF32-0AM0?

The 3VA2163 frame is physically larger than the 3VA1110 frame. The 3VA2163-5HN36-0JL0 measures 105 x 181 x 86 mm, while the 3VA1110 series is smaller. It will not drop into the same mounting footprint without panel modifications.
