Product details

The basic switch itself is order code 3VA2225-5HL42-0AA0, so this -0BL0 variant adds the UVR and the HQ alarm switch package on top of that base breaker.

This MCCB's interrupting capacity is rated at 187 kA at 240 V, 121 kA at 415 V and at 440 V, 75.6 kA at 500 V, and 4.5 kA at 690 V. The 121 kA at 415 V covers the standard European 400 V class, and the 75.6 kA at 500 V handles industrial 480 V/500 V systems. Above that, derating applies: 241 A at 55 °C, 232 A at 60 °C, 222 A at 65 °C, and 213 A at 70 °C.

Dimensions: 181 mm height, 140 mm width, 86 mm depth. That 140 mm width is the standard 4-pole MCCB footprint for the SENTRON 3VA2 frame — it occupies four 35 mm DIN-rail modules (each module is 17.5 mm, so 4 × 17.5 = 70 mm, but the breaker is wider than that because of the housing and arc chambers; the 140 mm is the total width including the case). The 86 mm depth is the projection from the mounting surface, which matters for enclosure depth clearance, especially if you have a shallow cabinet or a door-mounted operator. The breaker includes a trip indicator (mechanical flag) for visual confirmation of tripped state.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy 3VA2225-5HL42-0BL0 and get a price?

This part is available to order through independent distribution channels. Submit an RFQ for current pricing and availability — we confirm lead time and price at quote time.

What is the breaking capacity of this MCCB at 415 V?

The interrupting rating is 121 kA at 415 V, which covers standard European 400 V distribution systems.

Does this breaker include an undervoltage release?

Yes, it includes an undervoltage release (UVR) as the auxiliary release, which trips the breaker on loss of control voltage.
