Product details

Its interrupting capacity reaches 330 kA at 240 V, 242 kA at 415 V, and 187 kA at 500 V, making it suitable for high-fault installations like main feeders or large motor branch circuits.

At 55 °C it derates to 60.48 A, and at 70 °C to 56.7 A — so in a hot panel (e.g., near a drive or transformer), you must account for the reduced ampacity. Breaking capacity at 690 V is 52.5 kA — still substantial, but a fraction of the 330 kA at 240 V.

The breaker occupies a 105 mm width, 181 mm height, and 86 mm depth footprint — standard for a 3VA frame size. It mounts via screw terminals or optional plug-in base; no DIN-rail clip, so panel cutout and bus-bar planning are required. The 75 W maximum power loss must be ventilated in a sealed enclosure.

Frequently asked questions

What is the breaking capacity of this MCCB at different voltages?

At 240 V it is 330 kA; at 415 V and 440 V it is 242 kA; at 500 V it is 187 kA; at 690 V it is 52.5 kA. The rating drops with voltage, so verify your system fault level at the actual line voltage.

What is the rated continuous current of 3VA2163-7MN36-0HC0?

The rated continuous current Iu is 63 A, and it holds that rating up to 50 °C ambient. Above that, derating applies: 60.48 A at 55 °C, 59.22 A at 60 °C, 57.96 A at 65 °C, and 56.7 A at 70 °C.

Where can I buy 3VA2163-7MN36-0HC0 and how is it quoted?

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 your volume requirement.

Does this breaker include phase failure detection?

Yes, the ETU350M trip unit includes phase failure detection, protecting three-phase motors from single-phasing damage.
