Product details

What the ratings mean for fit

The Siemens 3VA2216-7MN32-0DL0 is a SENTRON molded case circuit breaker (MCCB) rated for 160 A continuously across the full ambient range from 40 °C to 70 °C — no derating needed up to that ceiling, which simplifies panel thermal budgeting. Its 330 kA breaking capacity at 240 V AC means it can safely interrupt a fault current that high without upstream cascading; at 415 V and 440 V that figure holds at 242 kA, and at 690 V it drops to 4.5 kA. For motor protection duty, the breaker includes phase failure detection and an undervoltage release (UVR), so it trips on loss of phase or control voltage — a standard requirement for conveyor, pump, and compressor circuits.

Panel integration and wiring

The breaker measures 105 mm wide, 181 mm high, and 86 mm deep — a standard 3-pole MCCB footprint that fits most distribution panels without re-drilling. The auxiliary switch block (2 aux switches + 1 trip alarm + 1 electrical alarm switch HQ) and the undervoltage release are factory-integrated on the basic switch 3VA2216-7MN32-0AA0, so no field assembly of add-on modules is needed. Trip indicator is present for quick visual fault identification on the line side.

Frequently asked questions

What is the breaking capacity of 3VA2216-7MN32-0DL0 at 240 V?

330 kA at 240 V AC, dropping to 242 kA at 415 V and 440 V, 187 kA at 500 V, and 4.5 kA at 690 V.

Where can I buy 3VA2216-7MN32-0DL0 and how is it quoted?

This breaker is sourced to order against an RFQ through independent distribution; availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time.

What is the closest functional second-source for 3VA2216-7MN32-0DL0?

The evidence lists 5SQ2370-2YA05, 5SQ2370-2YA04, and 5SQ2370-2YA01 as peer MPNs, but the 3VA2216-7MN32-0DL0 is a current-production SENTRON MCCB with specific auxiliary switch and release configuration — verify footprint and wiring before substituting.
