Product details

Its adjustable trip class (10A, 10E, 20E) lets you match the overload curve to the motor's starting profile — a 10E class clears fast on a high-inertia load without nuisance tripping, while 20E gives more headroom for longer acceleration.

Breaking capacity drops with system voltage: 330 kA at 240 V, 242 kA at 415 V and 440 V, 187 kA at 500 V, and 4.5 kA at 690 V. For 400 V panels the 242 kA rating gives substantial SCCR headroom for most industrial service entrances.

Motor protection and thermal performance

The adjustable trip class (10A, 10E, 20E) covers most low-voltage motor applications; 10A is for short acceleration times (conveyors), 20E for high-inertia loads (fans, centrifuges). Insulation voltage rated at 800 V gives margin above the 600 V class.

Panel integration

Fits standard 3-pole MCCB mounting footprints; no special adapter plate needed for most switchboard or enclosure cutouts. Maximum power loss 19.7 W — account for that in enclosure thermal calculations, especially in sealed stainless steel boxes.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy 3VA2216-7MN32-0AA0 and get a price?

This part is sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution. Submit an RFQ for current pricing and availability — confirmed at quote time.

What is the breaking capacity of 3VA2216-7MN32-0AA0 at 400 V?

At 415 V and 440 V the breaking capacity is 242 kA. At 400 V the value is not explicitly listed, but the 415 V figure (242 kA) is the closest published rating and indicates very high fault-interruption capability for a 160 A frame.

What is the depth of 3VA2216-7MN32-0AA0?

The depth is 86 mm (3.39 in). Panel builders should verify clearance for rear-mounted accessories and wiring space.

Does 3VA2216-7MN32-0AA0 include phase failure detection?

Yes, phase failure detection is built in. The breaker will trip if one phase is lost, protecting the motor from single-phasing damage.
