Product details

The Siemens SENTRON 3VA2163-5MQ32-0AA0 is a 3-pole molded case circuit breaker (MCCB) rated for 63 A continuous current across the full ambient range from 40 °C to 70 °C — no derating needed up to that ceiling.

This MCCB delivers 187 kA interrupting capacity at 240 V, 121 kA at 415 V and 440 V, 75.6 kA at 500 V, and 3.7 kA at 690 V.

Motor protection and monitoring

An undervoltage release is not fitted on this variant. The adjustable trip range spans 13 A to 63 A full-scale, with a minimum trip time of 3 s and maximum of 30 s — enough to ride through motor inrush on a pump or conveyor start.

Maximum power loss is 4 W.

Frequently asked questions

Who supplies 3VA2163-5MQ32-0AA0 and how is it quoted for volume purchases?

This part is sourced to order through independent distribution. Volume pricing and lead time are confirmed at quote time against an RFQ.

When sourcing 3VA2163-5MQ32-0AA0, what's the closest functional second-source?

The closest functional peer is the 3VA2163-8HM32-0AA0, which shares the same frame and 63 A rating but may differ in trip-unit features or accessories. Verify the trip curve and communication options before substituting.

What is 3VA2163-5MQ32-0AA0's listed depth?

The depth is 86 mm (3.39 in).

What is 3VA2163-5MQ32-0AA0's listed width?

The width is 105 mm (4.13 in).

Will 3VA2163-5MQ32-0AA0 drop into a panel specified around 3VA2163-8HM32-0AA0 without rewiring?

Yes, both share the same 3-pole footprint and 63 A rating, so the physical fit and terminal layout are identical. No rewiring is needed for the power connections, but verify the trip unit settings and any auxiliary wiring differences.

What compliance documentation does this brand provide for 3VA2163-5MQ32-0AA0?

Siemens SENTRON MCCBs carry UL, IEC, and CSA certifications as standard. RoHS and REACH declarations are available from the manufacturer upon request.
