Product details

Breaking capacity sits at 187 kA at 240 V, dropping to 121 kA at 415 V and 440 V, 75.6 kA at 500 V, and 4.5 kA at 690 V.

The 160 A rating is stable at 40 °C, 45 °C, 50 °C, 55 °C, 60 °C, 65 °C, and 70 °C — no reduction as ambient rises. That simplifies panel thermal budgeting: if your load draws 160 A, this breaker holds it regardless of enclosure heat buildup up to 70 °C. The auxiliary release is a shunt trip (STL), allowing remote tripping via a control signal — useful for emergency-stop circuits or interlocking with upstream safety relays.

Maximum power loss is 19.7 W. In a sealed panel with multiple breakers, that heat adds up — account for it in the enclosure's thermal dissipation calculation to avoid exceeding the 70 °C operating maximum.

Frequently asked questions

How do I get current pricing and availability for 3VA2216-5MN32-0JA0?

Current pricing and stock levels are confirmed at quote time against an RFQ. Submit the quantity you need, and we'll return a firm price and lead time — no fixed price list applies to this channel.

What is 3VA2216-5MN32-0JA0's listed depth (86 mm) on this component line?

The depth is 86 mm (3.39 in). That's the body depth excluding any protruding handle or terminal lugs — factor in additional clearance for rear-connected busbars or cable bends.

What is 3VA2216-5MN32-0JA0's listed width (105 mm) on this component line?

The width is 105 mm (4.13 in). That's the standard 3-pole MCCB width in the SENTRON 3VA family — it shares the same mounting footprint as other 3VA three-pole breakers.

Will 3VA2216-5MN32-0JA0 drop into a panel that was specified around 3VA1110-5EF32-0LA0 without rewiring?

Both are SENTRON 3VA molded-case breakers sharing the same physical footprint — 105 mm width, same DIN-rail mounting pattern. The 3VA2216 is a higher-current frame (160 A vs the 3VA1110's lower rating) and includes a shunt trip release, so wiring changes are needed for the control circuit but the busbar and enclosure cutout are compatible.

What compliance documentation does this brand provide for 3VA2216-5MN32-0JA0 (RoHS, REACH, UL, IEC)?

Siemens SENTRON breakers are designed to IEC 60947-2 and carry CE marking for the European market. UL and CSA listings are standard for the 3VA series, though the specific certification variant depends on the exact order code suffix. RoHS and REACH declarations are available from Siemens on request for this part.
