Product details

Siemens SENTRON 3VA2225-5HL42-0KC0 — 250 A MCCB with ETU320 Trip Unit

This is a current-production part. Breaking capacity scales with system voltage: 187 kA at 240 V, 121 kA at 415 V and 440 V, 79 kA at 500 V, and 5.1 kA at 690 V.

Above that, derate linearly: 241 A at 55 °C, 232 A at 60 °C, 222 A at 65 °C, and 213 A at 70 °C. Maximum power dissipation is 48 W — factor that into enclosure heat rise calculations, especially in a sealed panel with other heat sources.

Integration Notes — Panel Fit and Wiring

ETU320 is self-powered from line-side current; shunt trip requires separate signal.

Frequently asked questions

What trip unit does the 3VA2225-5HL42-0KC0 use?

It uses the ETU320 electronic trip unit with adjustable overload and short-circuit protection curves, plus an integrated shunt trip (STL) for remote tripping. Two HQ auxiliary switches are built in for status feedback.
