Product details

Above that, it derates linearly: 241 A at 55 °C, 232 A at 60 °C, 222 A at 65 °C, and 213 A at 70 °C. Maximum power loss is 50.5 W, which matters for ventilation planning in a sealed gland plate.

Interrupting capacity by voltage

The 3VA2225-5HL42-0DC0 delivers 187 kA at 240 V, 121 kA at both 415 V and 440 V, 75.6 kA at 500 V, and 4.5 kA at 690 V. At 415 V, the 121 kA figure covers high-fault utility feeds common in European and Asian plants.

Verify the gland plate knockout pattern against the 86 mm projection; some shallow enclosures need a spacer bracket.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy 3VA2225-5HL42-0DC0?

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

What is the interrupting capacity of 3VA2225-5HL42-0DC0 at 415 V?

The interrupting capacity is 121 kA at 415 V, which covers high-fault utility feeds common in industrial plants at that voltage.

Does 3VA2225-5HL42-0DC0 include an undervoltage release?

Yes, it includes an undervoltage release (UVR) as the auxiliary release type, plus two HQ auxiliary switches for status signaling.
