Product details

This MCCB delivers 242 kA interrupting capacity at 240 V, dropping to 187 kA at 415 V and 440 V, then 121 kA at 500 V, and 3.7 kA at 690 V.

Shunt trip and auxiliary release

The 3VA2163-6HN36-0KA0 includes a shunt trip (STL) as the auxiliary release — a remote-trip coil that lets a safety PLC, emergency-stop circuit, or fire-alarm panel open the breaker by applying a control voltage. There is no undervoltage release fitted, so the breaker does not drop out on loss of control power; that is a deliberate choice for applications where you want the line to stay live unless explicitly commanded to trip. No auxiliary switch is included, so remote status feedback requires an add-on module.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy 3VA2163-6HN36-0KA0 and what is the lead time?

This part is sourced to order against an RFQ through independent distribution. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time — submit an RFQ for a firm lead-time and price quote.

What is the breaking capacity of this MCCB at 240 V?

The interrupting capacity is 242 kA at 240 V, which covers high-fault installations without requiring a current-limiting fuse upstream.

Does this breaker include a shunt trip?

Yes, it includes a shunt trip (STL) for remote tripping. There is no undervoltage release and no auxiliary switch fitted.
