Product details

Interrupting capacity is the headline figure here: 242 kA at 240 V, 187 kA at 415 V and 440 V, 121 kA at 500 V, and 3.7 kA at 690 V.

Integration — panel fit and wiring

The 4-pole footprint matches the standard SENTRON 3VA mounting pattern. Ground-fault monitoring uses summation current formation on L+N. Communication function is built in.

Frequently asked questions

Will 3VA2163-6KQ42-0AA0 fit in a panel drilled for 5SQ2670-2YA06?

The 3VA2163-6KQ42-0AA0 uses the standard SENTRON 3VA mounting pattern. The 5SQ2670-2YA06 is a different Siemens series; verify the mounting hole spacing and busbar connection layout before assuming a drop-in fit.
