Product details

The Siemens SENTRON 3VA2225-5HL32-0KG0 is a 3-pole molded case circuit breaker rated for 250 A continuous current at 40 °C through 50 °C — no derating needed in a warm panel up to that point. Above 50 °C the thermal curve steps down: 241 A at 55 °C, 232 A at 60 °C, 222 A at 65 °C, and 213 A at 70 °C. The breaking capacity is the headline number for a line protection breaker: 187 kA at 240 V, 121 kA at 415 V and 440 V, 75.6 kA at 500 V, and 4.5 kA at 690 V.

The shunt trip coil draws from a separate control voltage; verify polarity and suppression on the coil circuit if you are wiring it into a 24 VDC control loop. The auxiliary and alarm switch contacts are rated for typical PLC-level signals (check the specific contact rating in the datasheet). No communication module means no fieldbus wiring — just the power lugs and the control wires for the shunt trip and aux contacts. It is a straight swap into any panel spec'd for a 250 A frame SENTRON breaker.

Frequently asked questions

What is the breaking capacity of this breaker at 240 V?

187 kA at 240 V, which is its highest interrupting rating. At 415 V and 440 V it drops to 121 kA, at 500 V to 75.6 kA, and at 690 V to 4.5 kA.

What does the shunt trip release do on this MCCB?

The shunt trip (STL) release lets you remotely trip the breaker by applying a control voltage to the release coil — useful for emergency stop circuits or remote disconnect in automated lines.
