The interrupting capacity hits 187 kA at 240 V, 121 kA at 415 V and 440 V, 75.6 kA at 500 V, and 17 kA at 690 V — that SCCR ladder tells you the breaker can clear a fault at the available fault current of your distribution transformer without rupturing, which is the deciding factor for switchboard coordination studies. Thermal derating is published from 40 °C through 70 °C: the breaker holds 250 A up to 50 °C, then drops to 240 A at 55 °C, 235 A at 60 °C, 230 A at 65 °C, and 225 A at 70 °C. ## Auxiliary contacts and trip indication That gives you separate dry contacts for status feedback (open/closed), a trip-indicating contact that latches on a fault, and an alarm contact for the ETU's internal event. Maximum power loss is 37.5 W — account for that in your enclosure thermal budget. The 138 mm width is the 3-pole frame footprint — it occupies three 45 mm-wide module positions on a DIN rail or bolts directly to a mounting plate via the rear slots. The 110 mm depth includes the rotary handle and terminal shields; leave clearance for cable bending radius below the line and load lugs.","metaTitle":"Siemens 3VA2325-5HL32-0HL0 SENTRON MCCB, 250 A, ETU320, 187","metaDescription":"Siemens 3VA2325-5HL32-0HL0 SENTRON molded case circuit breaker, 250 A rated continuous current, ETU320 release, 187 kA at 240 V.
