Interrupting capacity is voltage-dependent: 242 kA at 240 V, 187 kA at 415 V and 440 V, 121 kA at 500 V, and 9 kA at 690 V. The continuous current rating of 630 A is at 40 °C; derate linearly to 450 A at 70 °C. For a panel running at 50 °C ambient, the usable current drops to 570 A.
The shunt trip release allows remote tripping from a control system or emergency-stop circuit.

The closest peer in the SENTRON family is the 3VA2116-5JP32-0AE0, but it is a lower-current frame (160 A class) and does not match the 630 A rating or the interrupting capacity of this breaker. For a true form-fit-function alternate at 630 A, no direct second-source is listed — the 3VA2463-6JP32-0KA0 is the current production variant.
The depth is 110 mm (4.33 in).
The width is 138 mm (5.43 in).
No — the 3VA2116-5JP32-0AE0 is a 160 A frame; the 3VA2463-6JP32-0KA0 is a 630 A frame with different dimensions and bus-bar spacing. Panel cutouts and bus connections would need to be reworked.
The evidence does not list specific compliance certificates (RoHS, REACH, UL, IEC) for this order code. Standard Siemens SENTRON MCCBs typically carry UL 489, IEC 60947-2, and CE marking — confirm the exact documentation with your RFQ request.
