Product details

Line protection breaker for high-fault panels

Its interrupting capacity reaches 220 kA at 240 V AC, 154 kA at 415 V, 36 kA at 440 V, and 17 kA at 690 V — figures that place it in the high-interrupting class for line protection applications where fault currents are severe. The 250 A rating holds flat from 40 °C through 50 °C, then derates to 243.3 A at 55 °C, 236.5 A at 60 °C, 229 A at 65 °C, and 223 A at 70 °C.

Integration dimensions

The breaker measures 140 mm wide, 158 mm high, and 70 mm deep — a 4-pole footprint that fits standard SENTRON 3VA panel cutouts. The 70 mm depth keeps it within typical 200 mm deep enclosures, leaving room for rear busbar connections or cable ducting.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy 3VA1225-6GF42-0AB0 and how is it quoted?

This part is sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time — submit an RFQ for a firm commercial offer.

What are the interrupting capacity ratings at different voltages?

At 240 V AC the interrupting capacity is 220 kA; at 415 V it is 154 kA; at 440 V it is 36 kA; at 690 V it is 17 kA. These values cover the common industrial voltage levels for high-fault installations.

What is the thermal derating above 50 °C?

The 250 A rating holds flat from 40 °C to 50 °C. Above that it derates: 243.3 A at 55 °C, 236.5 A at 60 °C, 229 A at 65 °C, and 223 A at 70 °C. Use the 70 °C figure for worst-case enclosure ambient.

What compliance documentation does this breaker carry?

The product is a Siemens SENTRON molded case circuit breaker designed to IEC/EN 60947-2. Specific certifications (UL, CSA, CE, UKCA, EAC) should be confirmed from the manufacturer's declaration at the time of order; the evidence does not list individual marks.
