The 3-pole design covers three-phase systems; the 330 kA interrupting capacity at 240 VAC tells you it can clear a massive fault without rupturing — that's the kind of SCCR headroom you need at the service entrance or on a high-fault bus. At 415 V and 440 V it still holds 242 kA, and at 500 V it's 187 kA, so it's not a one-voltage wonder. At 40 °C ambient it carries the full 630 A; at 50 °C it's 593 A; at 60 °C it's 557 A; at 70 °C it's 520 A. If the panel ambient runs 55 °C, the real rating is 575 A, and the load must stay under that. The basic switch supplied is the 3VA2463-7HL32-0AA0. The 110 mm depth and 138 mm width fit the standard 3VA2 frame footprint; panel cutouts and busbar spacing match the rest of the 3VA2 family.
The SENTRON 3VA2 series is Siemens' current-generation molded case breaker platform, so this order code is the primary part, not a legacy cross. If you're holding a BOM that calls out a 5SQ2370-2YA05 or similar, the 3VA2463-7HL32-0HA0 is a different frame and footprint — it will not drop into a panel cut out for the 5SQ series without rewiring and re-cutting the mounting holes. No direct mechanical interchange exists.
