Product details

Three-pole construction with phase failure detection built in. The interrupting ratings are what you need for a high-fault installation: 187 kA at 240 V, 121 kA at 415 V and 440 V, 75.6 kA at 500 V, and 4.5 kA at 690 V (–). A trip indicator and undervoltage release option (not fitted here) round out the signal package for remote status and lockout schemes.

Breaking capacity and motor protection duty

Rated 160 A continuous, and the design is motor-protection — meaning the thermal-magnetic or electronic trip curve is shaped for motor inrush and overload profiles, not straight feeder protection. Power loss at rated load is 19.7 W maximum — relevant for enclosure thermal calculations when grouping multiple breakers.

Panel integration and compliance

The 86 mm depth fits standard 200 mm deep enclosures with clearance for rear-connected busbars. The part carries a trip indicator for visual fault identification without opening the panel.

Frequently asked questions

What is the breaking capacity of 3VA2216-5MN32-0JH0 at 415 V?

121 kA at 415 V, which is the Icu (ultimate breaking capacity) for this 3-pole MCCB.

Where can I buy 3VA2216-5MN32-0JH0 and how is it quoted?

Sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution channels. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at the time of quote.

What does the 160 A rating mean at higher ambient temperatures?

The 160 A rating holds flat from 40 °C to 70 °C — no derating required in a warm enclosure, which is typical for motor protection MCCBs in this class.

Does this MCCB include phase failure detection?

Yes, phase failure detection is built in as a standard feature of this motor protection design.
