Product details

This is a Siemens SENTRON 3VA2216-5MN32-0CC0 molded case circuit breaker purpose-built for motor protection. It's a 3-pole unit rated for a continuous 160 A, with an ETU350M electronic overcurrent release handling the trip curve. The interrupting capacity is substantial: 187 kA at 240 V, 121 kA at 415 V and 440 V, 75.6 kA at 500 V, and 17 kA at 690 V.

Thermal derating and what it means for the panel

At 55 °C it's still at 153.6 A, and at 70 °C it's at 144 A. That's a shallow derating curve — you don't lose much capacity even in a warm enclosure. Maximum power loss is 75 W, so factor that into your panel heat budget if you're stacking several of these.

Built-in release and auxiliary options

No voltage trigger or communication function here — this is a straightforward protection device, not a smart breaker. Endurance is rated at 20,000 operations.

It's a panel-mounted breaker — no DIN-rail snap-on here, so plan for screw-mounting in your enclosure layout.

Frequently asked questions

What is the breaking capacity of 3VA2216-5MN32-0CC0 at 415 V?

It's rated at 121 kA at 415 V, and the same 121 kA at 440 V. At 240 V it hits 187 kA, at 500 V it's 75.6 kA, and at 690 V it's 17 kA.

What overcurrent release does this MCCB use?

It uses the ETU350M electronic release, which is the motor-protection variant with phase-failure detection. No voltage trigger or communication function is included.

Where can I buy 3VA2216-5MN32-0CC0 and how is it quoted?
