Built to handle demanding industrial environments, this 60-amp, 3-pole MCCB delivers consistent long-time and instantaneous (LI) protection. The thermal-magnetic trip mechanism ensures reliable performance across 240V, 480V, and 600VAC networks. Designed for unit-mount configurations, it fits standard Siemens Sentron panelboards and switchboards. Note that this specific frame is replaced by the newer 3VA6160-7HL31-0AA0 model. It boasts an extra-high 200kAIC interrupting capacity at 480V.

Product FAQs
6 answers
Which enclosures fit the Siemens CED63B060 circuit breaker?
This breaker can be installed in standard Siemens Sentron ED frame enclosures. Commonly used models include the CED6N1S for indoor surface mounting or the CED6N3R for outdoor NEMA 3R applications.
Can this breaker be installed in standard residential plug-on load centers?
No. The CED63B060 features a bolt-on unit mount design intended exclusively for commercial or industrial Siemens Sentron panelboards, switchboards, and dedicated ED frame enclosures.
What type of wire is compatible with the standard lugs on this breaker?
The factory-installed lugs accept either copper or aluminum (Cu/Al) conductors ranging from 10 AWG up to 1/0 AWG. Conductors must be properly torqued to Siemens specifications during installation.
Is the Siemens CED63B060 a current-limiting circuit breaker?
Yes, the CED6 series features a current-limiting design that restricts let-through energy during a fault, which helps protect downstream panel components from severe thermal and magnetic stress.
What specific fault conditions does the LI trip unit protect against?
The fixed thermal-magnetic trip unit includes long-time (L) protection for clearing sustained overloads and instantaneous (I) protection for immediate short-circuit interruption.
Is the CED63B060 suitable for commercial HVAC installations?
Yes, this molded case breaker is HACR rated, meaning it has been tested and approved for the specific electrical demands and inrush currents of commercial heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration equipment.
