The 250 A continuous rating is the breaker's nominal current — it can carry that load indefinitely without tripping. The interrupting ratings (–) tell you the maximum fault current it can safely clear at each voltage: 440 kA at 240 V is extremely high, suitable for transformer-secondaries or high-fault busways; 52.5 kA at 690 V still covers most industrial installations. The 3-pole construction handles three-phase circuits, and the shunt trip release lets a control system or emergency-stop circuit open the breaker remotely — common in automated lines or safety circuits. Thermal derating (–) is the spec that trips up panel builders: at 55 °C the breaker still carries 241 A, but at 70 °C it drops to 213 A. Maximum power loss is 48 W — negligible for ventilation planning in a standard enclosure. No auxiliary switch is fitted, but the shunt trip occupies the auxiliary release slot — verify that your control voltage matches the shunt trip rating before wiring.","metaTitle":"Siemens 3VA2225-8HL32-0JA0 SENTRON MCCB, 250 A, 3-Pole, Shun","metaDescription":"Siemens SENTRON 3VA2225-8HL32-0JA0 molded case circuit breaker, 250 A continuous, 3-pole, 440 kA at 240 V.
