Product details

It's configured as a line protection device — meaning the trip curve and accessories are set for feeder or main breaker duty, not motor protection. The interrupting ratings step down cleanly across voltage tiers: 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.

Above that, derate in roughly 2–3% steps per 5 °C: 612 A at 45 °C, 593 A at 50 °C, 575 A at 55 °C, 557 A at 60 °C, 538 A at 65 °C, and 520 A at 70 °C. If your panel internal ambient runs at 50 °C — common in a packed enclosure with drives — you lose about 6% of the headline ampacity.

The mechanical endurance of 15,000 operations is typical for a fixed-mounted MCCB used as a main disconnect; it's not designed for frequent switching like a contactor. The ETU320 release offers LSI protection (long-time, short-time, instantaneous) with adjustable pickups — no ground-fault or communication functions on this variant. Phase failure detection is not built in; that's handled upstream or by the motor protection relay.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy 3VA2463-5HL32-0CA0 and what is the lead time?

This MCCB is sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time — submit an RFQ for a firm lead time and price.

What is the closest functional second-source for 3VA2463-5HL32-0CA0?

The closest functional peer in the SENTRON family is the 3VA1112-5EF32-0CA0, but it's a smaller frame size with lower interrupting capacity. The 3VA2463 frame is the 630 A tier; the 3VA1112 tops out at lower current. They share the same DIN-rail mounting pattern, but the 3VA1112 won't carry 630 A — verify your load before substituting.

Will 3VA2463-5HL32-0CA0 drop into a panel specified around 3VA1112-5EF32-0CA0 without rewiring?

No. The 3VA2463 frame is physically larger (248 x 138 x 110 mm vs the smaller 3VA1112 frame). The busbar spacing and lug positions differ. You'll need to rework the mounting and bus connections. Stick with the 3VA2463 if your BOM calls for 630 A.

What compliance documentation is available for 3VA2463-5HL32-0CA0?

Siemens SENTRON MCCBs carry IEC 60947-2 certification as standard. RoHS and REACH declarations are available from the manufacturer. UL/CSA listing depends on the specific variant — the -0CA0 suffix with UVR may not carry UL file numbers; verify with the factory if UL listing is required for your jurisdiction.
