Product details

What this MCCB does for a motor circuit

The Siemens 3VA2163-5MN36-0AG0 is a 3-pole molded case circuit breaker from the SENTRON family, rated 63 A continuous current at 40 °C and built for motor protection with an ETU350M electronic trip unit that includes phase failure detection. The interrupting ratings climb to 187 kA at 240 V AC, 121 kA at 415 V, and 121 kA at 440 V, then drop to 75.6 kA at 500 V and 17 kA at 690 V — so on a 480 V panel this breaker clears faults well above typical available fault currents without cascading upstream.

The 63 A rating holds flat from 40 °C through 50 °C, then 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. If your enclosure runs hot near the top of that range, you lose about 10 % of the continuous current — size the breaker for the actual ambient, not the nameplate.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy 3VA2163-5MN36-0AG0 and what is the lead time?

We source this MCCB to order against an RFQ. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time — no stock figures or lead-time numbers on this page.

What is the interrupting rating of 3VA2163-5MN36-0AG0 at 480 V?

At 500 V the breaker interrupts 75.6 kA; at 440 V it interrupts 121 kA. For a 480 V system the rating falls between those two values, so treat it as the 75.6 kA ceiling at 500 V.

What does the ETU350M trip unit do?

The ETU350M is an electronic overcurrent release with phase failure detection, designed for motor protection. It provides adjustable long-time, short-time, and instantaneous pickup settings — not just a fixed thermal curve.
