The Siemens SENTRON 3VA2163-6HL36-0AD0 is a 3-pole molded case circuit breaker (MCCB) rated for a continuous current of 63 A, designed for line protection in distribution panels. It carries a breaking capacity of 242 kA at 240 V AC, 187 kA at 415 V and 440 V, 121 kA at 500 V, and 3.7 kA at 690 V — these numbers define the maximum fault current it can safely interrupt at each voltage level, which is the primary selection criterion for panel coordination studies.
The 63 A rating holds across the full operating temperature range from -25 °C to 70 °C — no derating needed as the panel warms up, which simplifies panel schedules. The 800 V rated insulation voltage gives headroom for 480 V and 600 V class systems.
Dimensions are 105 mm wide, 181 mm tall, and 86 mm deep — fits standard MCCB mounting footprints in 600 mm wide enclosures.
