Product details

What this MCCB does on the line

Its 3-pole design and line-protection profile make it a straight fit for feeder or main breaker duty in a distribution panel, sized for a 160 A bus. The interrupting capacity hits 187 kA at 240 V, 121 kA at 415 V, and 75.6 kA at 500 V, so it handles high-fault scenarios common in industrial switchgear without cascading upstream.

At 415 V and 440 V it still delivers 121 kA, and at 500 V it holds 75.6 kA. The trip indicator gives a visible flag when the breaker has opened on fault, speeding up fault isolation on a crowded panel.

Integration and auxiliaries

That gives remote status feedback — auxiliary for open/closed, trip alarm for fault-trip only — without needing a separate accessory order. If you need those, this isn't the build. The basic switch base is order code 3VA2216-5HL32-0AA0, so the -0AJ0 suffix adds the auxiliary switch package.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy 3VA2216-5HL32-0AJ0 and how do I get a price?

This part is sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution. Submit an RFQ for current availability and pricing — no stock count or price is listed here.

What is 3VA2216-5HL32-0AJ0's listed depth?

The depth is 86 mm. Width is 105 mm, height is 181 mm.

Will 3VA2216-5HL32-0AJ0 drop into a panel specified around 3VA2116-5HL32-0AK0 without rewiring?

Both are 3-pole SENTRON MCCBs in the same 3VA frame family, sharing the same mounting footprint and terminal layout. The 3VA2216-5HL32-0AJ0 carries a higher continuous rating (160 A vs the 3VA2116 variant's lower rating) and different breaking capacities, but the physical drop-in fit is the same — no rewiring of the bus or DIN-rail mount needed.
