Product details

The Siemens SENTRON 3VA2163-8HK36-0AA0 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 needed up to that ceiling, which simplifies panel sizing in warm enclosures. Breaking capacity is rated 440 kA at 240 V, 330 kA at 415 V and 440 V, 220 kA at 500 V, and 52.5 kA at 690 V — these are the maximum fault currents the breaker can safely interrupt at each voltage level, giving you the SCCR headroom for high-fault installations.

The 3VA2 frame accepts optional motor drive (listed as an optional extension), which can be specified for remote trip or reclose applications.

Frequently asked questions

Will 3VA2163-8HK36-0AA0 drop into a panel specified for 3VA1110-5ED36-0AA0 without rewiring?

The 3VA2163-8HK36-0AA0 is a 3-pole, 63 A MCCB on the 3VA2 frame with ETU340 trip unit, while the 3VA1110-5ED36-0AA0 is a different frame and rating. Panel cutout dimensions and busbar spacing must be verified against the 105 mm width, 181 mm height, and 86 mm depth before assuming interchangeability.
