Footprint is 105 mm wide, 181 mm tall, 86 mm deep — a standard SENTRON 3VA form factor that drops into the same mounting holes as the 3VA2 family. The 86 mm depth leaves room for rear-connected busbars in a typical 600 mm deep enclosure. Current production — no phase-out notice on this order code. The base switch variant is 3VA2225-5HL32-0AA0; this -0AH0 adds the auxiliary switch package and trip alarm. At 480 V systems (common in North America) the 121 kA at 440 V is the closest published point; for 600 V class gear the 75.6 kA at 500 V applies. Power loss is 48 W maximum at rated current — relevant for thermal coordination in a sealed enclosure, especially if multiple breakers share a compartment.","metaTitle":"Siemens 3VA2225-5HL32-0AH0 SENTRON MCCB, 250 A, 3-Pole, 187","metaDescription":"Siemens SENTRON 3VA2225-5HL32-0AH0 molded case circuit breaker, 250 A continuous, 3-pole, 187 kA breaking capacity at 240 V.
