That 70 °C operating max matches the upper end of many non-climate-controlled industrial enclosures — useful if this breaker lives near a furnace line or inside a packed panel with limited airflow. ## Interrupting Ratings and Selectivity The 3VA2225-5HN42-0AF0 delivers 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. Maximum power loss is 48 W, which factors into enclosure thermal calculations if you're stacking multiple breakers in a single cabinet.","metaTitle":"Siemens 3VA2225-5HN42-0AF0 SENTRON MCCB, 250 A, 4-Pole, 187","metaDescription":"Siemens SENTRON 3VA2225-5HN42-0AF0 molded case circuit breaker, 250 A continuous, 4-pole, 187 kA at 240 V interrupting rating.
