Product details

The Siemens SENTRON 3VA1225-6EF32-0KA0 is a 3-pole molded case circuit breaker (MCCB) rated 250 A continuous at 40 °C, with a TM240 thermal-magnetic overcurrent release and an integrated shunt trip (STL) auxiliary release. Breaking capacity is the headline number that governs fault-current coordination: 220 kA at 240 V AC, 154 kA at 415 V, 75.6 kA at 440 V, 30 kA at 500 V, and 17 kA at 690 V. That 220 kA at 240 V places it in the high-interrupting category for North American 240/277 V distribution — it clears a bolted fault upstream of the main without cascading, so downstream breakers can be rated lower.

Thermal derating and continuous current

At 55 °C it drops to 243 A, at 60 °C to 237 A, at 65 °C to 230 A, and at 70 °C to 223 A.

Shunt trip and auxiliary release configuration

The breaker can be remotely tripped by energizing the shunt coil, standard for emergency-stop circuits or fire-alarm shunt-down.

Frequently asked questions

Does 3VA1225-6EF32-0KA0 include a shunt trip?

Yes, the auxiliary release is a shunt trip (STL), enabling remote tripping for emergency-stop or fire-alarm shunt-down circuits.
