The 3VU9165-0BB01 carries an NRND (Not Recommended for New Designs) status from Siemens, meaning it remains available for existing BOM lines but is no longer the preferred choice for new builds. Classified as product class C — manufactured or produced to order, which cannot be reused or returned against credit — so each unit is pulled specifically for your order.
This is an accessory for the Siemens 3VU16 switch family — a component that supports the mounting, connection, or function of the base switch in a motor feeder or distribution panel. The 3VU16 series is a compact manual motor starter / disconnect used in control panels for motor protection and switching up to around 16 A class; this accessory integrates into that same DIN-rail or panel-mount footprint.
RoHS compliant since 01-03-17, with REACH Article 33 duty-to-inform information available on the current candidate list.
