Product details

The Siemens SENTRON 3VA2163-6HN36-0AJ0 is a 3-pole molded case circuit breaker rated for 63 A continuous current across the full ambient range from 40 °C to 70 °C — no derating curve to chase. Interrupting capacity hits 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. Line protection design means it's tuned for feeder and distribution duty, not motor-starting curves.

Fit and footprint

Power loss maxes out at 4 W, so ventilation requirements are minimal even in a sealed enclosure.

Switching and signaling

Trip indicator is present on the front face, so a walk-by tells you whether it's a manual open or a fault.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy 3VA2163-6HN36-0AJ0 and get a price?

This part is sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution. Submit a request for quote; availability and current pricing are confirmed at that time.

What are the key interrupting ratings for this MCCB?

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. The 242 kA at 240 V is the standout — it handles very high fault currents typical in transformer-secondaries or large busway feeds.

Does this breaker have auxiliary contacts built in?

Yes, it ships with 2 auxiliary switches plus 1 trip alarm switch (HP type) — no separate accessory needed for remote status or fault indication.

What compliance documentation does Siemens provide for this part?

As a current-production SENTRON MCCB, it carries the standard Siemens declarations — RoHS, REACH, and IEC/UL certifications applicable to the 3VA2 series. Specific certificate copies are available on request at quote time.
