At 415 VAC it still interrupts 187 kA, which means it handles high-fault utility feeds or large transformer secondaries without cascading failure upstream. The design is line protection — intended for main or feeder breaker duty, not motor branch circuit protection. The basic switch variant is 3VA2225-6HL32-0AA0. That thermal performance means it can sit in a moderately warm enclosure without forced ventilation and still deliver close to nameplate current.","metaTitle":"Siemens SENTRON 3VA2225-6HL32-0BH0 MCCB, 250 A, 242 kA at 24","metaDescription":"Siemens SENTRON 3VA2225-6HL32-0BH0 molded case circuit breaker, 250 A continuous, 242 kA breaking capacity at 240 VAC. 3-pole, line protection, with undervoltage release and auxili","metaKeywords":null},"attributes":{"series":null,"packageCase":null,"mountingType":null,"rohsStatus":null,"productStatus":null,"categoryPath":["Molded Case Circuit Breakers (MCCB)"],"specifications":{"Depth":"86 mm","Width":"105 mm","Height":"181 mm","Maximum":"2 500 A","Minimum":"375 A","at 240 V":"242 kA","at 415 V":"187 kA","at 440 V":"187 kA","at 500 V":"121 kA","at 690 V":"4.5 kA","at 40 °C":"250 A","at 45 °C":"250 A","at 50 °C":"250 A","at 55 °C":"241 A","at 60 °C":"232 A","at 65 °C":"222 A","at 70 °C":"213 A","Depth [In]":"3.39 in","Width [In]":"4.13 in","Height [In]":"7.13 in","Trip Indicator":"Yes","Number Of Poles":"3","Voltage Trigger":"No","lifecycle_stage":"current","Product Brand Name":"SENTRON","Product Designation":"Molded case circuit breaker","Undervoltage Release":"Yes","Design Of The Product":"Line protection","Communication Function":"No","During Storage / Maximum":"80 °C","During Storage / Minimum":"-40 °C","power loss [W] / maximum":"50.5 W","During Operation / Maximum":"70 °C","During Operation / Minimum":"-25 °C","Other Measurement Function":"No","Of The Supplied Basic Switch":"3VA2225-6HL32-0AA0","Design Of The Auxiliary Switch":"2 auxiliary switches + 1 trip alarm switch HQ","Design Of The Auxiliary Release":"undervoltage release (UVR)","Ground-Fault Monitoring Version":"Without","Continuous Current / Rated Value":"250 A","Insulation Voltage / Rated Value":"800 V","Design Of The Overcurrent Release":"ETU320","protection class IP / on the front":"IP40","Of The Integrated Auxiliary Trip Unit":"3VA9608-0BB11","Product Function / Grounding Protection":"No","operating voltage / at AC / rated value":"690 V","reference code / according to IEC 81346-2":"Q","Continuous Current / Rated Value / Maximum":"250 A","Product Extension / Optional / Motor Drive":"Yes","Protection Function Of The Overcurrent Release":"LI","number of CO contacts / for auxiliary contacts":"3","Of The Integrated Auxiliary Switch/Alarm Switch":"3VA9988-0AB12","Switching Capacity Class Of The Circuit Breaker":"H","Mechanical Service Life (Operating Cycles) / Typical":"25 000","Type Of Electrical Connection / For Main Current Circuit":"on both sides nut keeper kit","Arrangement Of Electrical Connectors / For Main Current Circuit":"Front terminal"}},"commercial":{"minOrderQty":null,"leadTime":null,"referencePrice":null,"priceTiers":null},"links":{"datasheetUrl":"https://cdn.aoctrl.com/6a7c0d29262bf1366bc093fc9653b1e6.pdf","sourceUrl":"https://support.industry.siemens.com/webbackend/api/ProductSupport/TechnicalData?language=en&region=cn&productId=355367&mlfb=3VA2225-6HL32-0BH0","alternativesUrl":"https://aoctrl.com/api/mcp/products/3VA2225-6HL32-0BH0/alternatives.json"},"ai":{"faq":[{"question":"Where can I buy 3VA2225-6HL32-0BH0 and how do I get a price?","answer":"This part is sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution.
