Product details

Its interrupting capacity hits 187 kA at 240 V, dropping to 121 kA at 415 V and 440 V, then 75.6 kA at 500 V, and 3.7 kA at 690 V.

Fit and panel integration

The 105 mm width is the standard 4-pole-module footprint for a 3-pole frame — it occupies the same DIN-rail or mounting-plate real estate as other SENTRON 3VA2 breakers, so a panel laid out for a 3VA2163-5HL32-0DB0 will accept this unit without re-drilling.

Frequently asked questions

Will 3VA2163-5KP32-0AJ0 drop into a panel specified around 3VA2163-5HL32-0DB0 without rewiring?

Yes — both are 3-pole SENTRON 3VA2 frame breakers sharing the same 105 mm width and 181 mm height, so the mounting footprint and bus-bar spacing are identical. The 86 mm depth also matches. No re-drilling or bus rework needed.
