Above 50 °C the thermal curve steps down: 241 A at 55 °C, 232 A at 60 °C, 222 A at 65 °C, and 213 A at 70 °C. The breaking capacity is the headline number for a line protection breaker: 187 kA at 240 V, 121 kA at 415 V and 440 V, 75.6 kA at 500 V, and 4.5 kA at 690 V. The shunt trip coil draws from a separate control voltage; verify polarity and suppression on the coil circuit if you are wiring it into a 24 VDC control loop. The auxiliary and alarm switch contacts are rated for typical PLC-level signals (check the specific contact rating in the datasheet). No communication module means no fieldbus wiring — just the power lugs and the control wires for the shunt trip and aux contacts. It is a straight swap into any panel spec'd for a 250 A frame SENTRON breaker.","metaTitle":"Siemens 3VA2225-5HL32-0KG0 MCCB, 250 A, 187 kA at 240 V","metaDescription":"Siemens SENTRON 3VA2225-5HL32-0KG0 molded case circuit breaker, 250 A rated, 187 kA breaking at 240 V. 3-pole, shunt trip, line protection.
