Product details

The 63 A rating holds flat from 40 °C through 50 °C, then derates to 56.7 A at 70 °C; if your panel ambient runs hot, that derating curve is what governs the actual load it can carry.

The 187 kA at 240 V is the headline SCCR, but the real-world selectivity planning happens at the 415 V and 440 V levels where it still holds 121 kA. At 500 V it drops to 75.6 kA, and at 690 V to 17 kA.

Dimensions are 105 mm wide, 181 mm high, 86 mm deep — a standard 3-pole MCCB footprint that fits SENTRON 3VA2 mounting plates and busbar adapters. Maximum power loss of 75 W at rated load means the panel ventilation must handle that heat; in a sealed enclosure with multiple breakers, the cumulative dissipation drives the cooling calculation.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy 3VA2163-5MN32-0AB0 and how do I get a price?

This part is sourced to order through independent distribution. Submit an RFQ for current availability and pricing — confirmed at quote time, no stock count or price is published here.

What are the key interrupting ratings for 3VA2163-5MN32-0AB0?

187 kA at 240 V, 121 kA at 415 V and 440 V, 75.6 kA at 500 V, and 17 kA at 690 V. The 500 V figure (75.6 kA) is the relevant bound for 480 V distribution panels.

What is the continuous current rating and how does it derate with temperature?

Rated 63 A continuous from 40 °C through 50 °C. It derates to 60.48 A at 55 °C, 59.22 A at 60 °C, 57.96 A at 65 °C, and 56.7 A at 70 °C.

What overcurrent release does this MCCB use?

It uses the ETU350M electronic release, which supports adjustable I²t curves and includes phase failure detection — important for motor protection applications.
