At 415 V and 440 V the interrupting rating holds at 121 kA, dropping to 79 kA at 500 V and 5.1 kA at 690 V, so verify the available fault current at your system voltage before specifying. The thermal derating curve is published: full 250 A through 50 °C ambient, then 241 A at 55 °C, 232 A at 60 °C, 222 A at 65 °C, and 213 A at 70 °C. If your panel internal ambient runs above 50 °C, size the load or provide ventilation to stay within the rated envelope.

Frequently asked questions
Where can I buy 3VA2225-5HL32-0AJ0 and how do I get a price?
This part is sourced to order through independent distribution. Submit an RFQ for current pricing and availability — confirmed at quote time, not from a static listing.
What is the depth of 3VA2225-5HL32-0AJ0?
The depth is 86 mm, with a width of 105 mm and height of 181 mm.
Will 3VA2225-5HL32-0AJ0 drop into a panel specified around 3VA1010-2ED32-0JA0 without rewiring?
No — the 3VA1010-2ED32-0JA0 is a physically smaller frame (100 A class) with a different footprint and busbar spacing. The 3VA2225 frame at 250 A is larger in all dimensions, so the panel cutout and bus connections would need to be reworked.
What compliance documentation does Siemens provide for this MCCB?
Siemens SENTRON 3VA breakers carry UL, CSA, and IEC certifications as standard. RoHS and REACH declarations are available through Siemens Industry Online Support. The specific approvals for this order code should be confirmed against the nameplate marking at receipt.
