Product details

MCCB for line protection — 125 A, 4-pole, high breaking capacity

The Siemens SENTRON 3VA1225-5FF42-0KC0 is a 4-pole molded case circuit breaker rated at 125 A continuous, designed for line protection in distribution panels. Its breaking capacity reaches 187 kA at 240 V AC, 121 kA at 415 V, 75.6 kA at 440 V, 30 kA at 500 V, and 17 kA at 690 V — figures that cover most industrial fault-current scenarios without needing an upstream current-limiting fuse.

The breaker holds 250 A continuously at ambient temperatures up to 50 °C, then derates linearly to 223 A at 70 °C — critical when the breaker shares an enclosure with other heat sources. Operating range is -25 °C to +70 °C; storage range is -40 °C to +80 °C. Dimensions are 70 mm deep, 140 mm wide, 158 mm high — a standard 4-pole MCCB footprint for DIN-rail or screw-mount panel integration.
