Product details

Breaking capacity steps are given per voltage: 121 kA at 240 V, 75.6 kA at 415 V, 52.5 kA at 440 V, 17 kA at 500 V, and 11.9 kA at 690 V. That covers most industrial distribution voltages up to 690 V, with the highest fault-interrupting ability at the lower voltages — typical for a line-protection MCCB sized for high-fault panels.

Temperature derating and thermal management

Above that it derates linearly: 243 A at 55 °C, 237 A at 60 °C, 230 A at 65 °C, and 223 A at 70 °C.

Rated insulation voltage is 800 V, and the operating temperature range is -25 °C to 70 °C, with storage from -40 °C to 80 °C.

Frequently asked questions

What is the breaking capacity of 3VA1225-4GF42-0KA0 at 415 V?

75.6 kA at 415 V. The breaker also carries 121 kA at 240 V, 52.5 kA at 440 V, 17 kA at 500 V, and 11.9 kA at 690 V.

Does 3VA1225-4GF42-0KA0 include a shunt trip?

Yes, it is fitted with a shunt trip (STL) auxiliary release for remote tripping. No undervoltage release is included.

Where can I buy 3VA1225-4GF42-0KA0?

Sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time.
