Product details

Siemens 3VA2216-5MN32-0AC0 — 160 A SENTRON MCCB for Motor Protection

Three poles, with phase failure detection integrated and two high-performance auxiliary switches (HQ type) for status feedback to the PLC or safety relay. Breaking capacity is the headline here: 187 kA at 240 V, 121 kA at 415 V and 440 V, dropping to 75.6 kA at 500 V, and 4.5 kA at 690 V. The 4.5 kA at 690 V is a reminder that at higher voltages the arc extinction is harder; this breaker is optimized for 400–480 V class systems, not 690 V main feeders.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy 3VA2216-5MN32-0AC0 and how do I get a price?

This part is sourced through independent distribution and quoted to order against an RFQ. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time.

What compliance documentation does Siemens provide for 3VA2216-5MN32-0AC0?

As a SENTRON MCCB, this breaker carries UL, CSA, CE, and IEC certifications standard for the series. RoHS and REACH declarations are available from Siemens documentation.

What is 3VA2216-5MN32-0AC0's listed depth?

86 mm (3.39 in), which fits standard 200 mm deep enclosures with clearance for wiring.

What is 3VA2216-5MN32-0AC0's listed width?

105 mm (4.13 in), the standard 3VA three-pole MCCB width.

Will 3VA2216-5MN32-0AC0 drop into a panel specified around 3VA2116-5JP32-0AE0 without rewiring?

Both are SENTRON 3VA frame breakers with identical mounting footprint and pole spacing, so mechanical fit is the same. However, the -5JP32-0AE0 is a different rating variant; verify the current and breaking capacity match the panel schedule before swapping.
