Product details

At 415 V the rating drops to 121 kA, still enough for most secondary distribution; at 690 V it's 4.5 kA, which limits its use on 690 V systems to low-fault-capacity points.

Thermal derating — the real-world current you can pull

Above that it derates: 241 A at 55 °C, 232 A at 60 °C, 222 A at 65 °C, and 213 A at 70 °C.

Switching and protection features

The breaker ships with a built-in undervoltage release (UVR) — that's the '0CL0' suffix indicator. The trip indicator is mechanical, so you can see a trip event even with the panel door closed.

Panel fit — dimensions and mounting

The 140 mm width is the 4-pole footprint; a 3-pole version would be narrower, so if you're swapping into a panel cut out for a 3-pole MCCB, you'll need to verify the mounting plate accommodates the extra width.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy 3VA2225-5HL42-0CL0 and what is the lead time?

This part is sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time — no stock count or lead-time number is published here.

What is the interrupting rating of 3VA2225-5HL42-0CL0 at 240 V?

187 kA at 240 V, which covers high-fault-capacity service entrance and industrial main distribution panel applications.

Does 3VA2225-5HL42-0CL0 include an undervoltage release?

Yes, it includes an undervoltage release (UVR) as the auxiliary release, plus 2 auxiliary switches, 1 trip alarm switch, and 1 electrical alarm switch.

What is the depth of 3VA2225-5HL42-0CL0?

86 mm (3.39 in), which fits standard-depth distribution enclosures without a deep-can extension.
