Product details

Part identity and what it does

Breaking capacity across voltages

Interrupting rating drops as voltage rises: 187 kA at 240 V, 121 kA at 415 V, 75.6 kA at 440 V, 30 kA at 500 V, and 17 kA at 690 V.

Derating starts above 50 °C: 243 A at 55 °C, 237 A at 60 °C, 230 A at 65 °C, 223 A at 70 °C. The 70 mm depth and 140 mm width mean it fits standard MCCB panel cutouts; the 158 mm height is typical for this frame size.

Auxiliary and release configuration

The shunt trip lets a remote PLC or E-stop circuit trip the breaker — common for emergency-off chains in conveyor or pump panels. Trip indicator and voltage trigger are present on the mechanism.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy 3VA1225-5FF42-0HH0 and what is the lead time?

Sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time — no stock count or lead-time number is published here, but a quote request gets you a firm answer.

Will 3VA1225-5FF42-0HH0 drop into a panel specified around 3VA1110-5ED36-0AC0?

No — the 3VA1110-5ED36-0AC0 is a smaller frame (100 A, 3-pole) with different dimensions and a lower interrupting rating. The 3VA1225 is a 125 A, 4-pole frame with a 70 mm depth vs the 3VA1110's shallower profile. Panel cutouts and bus connections would need rework.

What are the key ratings for this MCCB?

125 A continuous, 4-pole, 187 kA interrupting at 240 V, insulation voltage 800 V. Thermal derating starts above 50 °C. Shunt trip and two auxiliary switches plus trip alarm are included.
