IEC frame 160 3-pole design 55kA breaking capacity Adjustable overload protection (11-16A) High short-circuit protection (20x In) TM220 ATFM trip unit

Product description

The Siemens 3VA1196-5EE32-0AA0 is a 3VA1 IEC frame circuit breaker designed for reliable circuit protection in industrial environments. This 3-pole unit is rated at 16A with a breaking capacity of 55 kA at 415V. It is equipped with the TM220 ATFM trip unit for line protection, featuring adjustable overload protection from 11A to 16A and a high short-circuit protection setting of 20 times the rated current (Ii). The breaker includes a nut keeper kit for secure installation.

This circuit breaker is suitable for protecting smaller loads and branch circuits in manufacturing, automation, and various industrial applications where precise current settings and a high instantaneous trip are needed. The increased Ii setting can be beneficial for motors with high starting currents.
