Product details

The EVS25H3NW5A is a 3-pole drawout air circuit breaker from the EasyPact EVS range, rated 2500 A at 40 °C and carrying a 65 kA Icu breaking capacity at 440 V AC (50/60 Hz) per IEC 60947-2. The electronic trip unit (EVS Trip System5A) provides overload (long-time), short-time, and instantaneous short-circuit protection, with a thermal memory that holds the thermal model for 20 minutes before and after a trip — so a reclose-and-trip sequence on a hot conductor is accurately timed. Drawout mounting means the breaker chassis stays wired in the switchgear; the moving portion pulls out for inspection or swap without disturbing the bus connections. The IP40 enclosure keeps out tools and fingers but not fine dust — expect this in a clean indoor switchgear lineup, not a washdown area.

Integration notes

Dimensions: 441 mm wide × 439 mm high × 395 mm deep. Rear connection with a 115 mm pitch without spreader. Mounts on a rail base plate. The drawout cradle needs clearance for the racking mechanism — verify the switchgear cubicle depth against the 395 mm plus handle throw. Pollution degree 4 means it's rated for conductive pollution environments (heavy condensation, occasional conductive dust), typical of industrial switchrooms.

Frequently asked questions

What is the closest alternative to EVS25H3NW5A in the EasyPact EVS family?

Within the same EasyPact EVS range, the closest sibling is the EVS25H3NW5A itself — there is no pin-for-pin alternative with identical ratings. If you need a different breaking capacity code (e.g., S, N, or L) or a different trip unit, the frame size and drawout footprint remain the same, but the trip unit and breaking capacity change. Check the spec line for your required Icu at the system voltage.
