Product details

The 330 kA interrupting rating at 240 V tells you this breaker can safely clear a fault up to that level without upstream devices needing to coordinate; at 415 V and 440 V it still holds 242 kA, and at 690 V it drops to 52.5 kA.

Because this is a current-production Siemens part, lead times typically follow the standard factory cycle; a sourcing inquiry will return the current delivery window and per-unit pricing for the quantity you need.

The 75 W maximum power loss at full load means you need to account for heat dissipation in the enclosure; if you are packing multiple breakers in a sealed cabinet, derate the ambient or add forced ventilation above 50 °C, where the continuous current starts to taper from 63 A down to 56.7 A at 70 °C. The 20 000 latching endurance cycles cover the mechanical life; for the electrical endurance, that depends on the breaking current at your service voltage — the datasheet's curve applies.

Frequently asked questions

How do I get current pricing and availability for 3VA2163-7MS36-0HC0?

Pricing and availability are confirmed at quote time against an RFQ through independent distribution. Submit a sourcing request with your target quantity and delivery window to receive a current quote.

What is the interrupting rating of 3VA2163-7MS36-0HC0 at 240 V?

The interrupting rating is 330 kA at 240 V, dropping to 242 kA at 415 V and 440 V, 187 kA at 500 V, and 52.5 kA at 690 V.

What type of overcurrent release does this MCCB use?

It uses an ETU310M electronic overcurrent release with adjustable thermal and magnetic trip settings, designed for motor starter protection applications.
