Product details

The 3VA2225-5HL42-0KH0: The 250 A continuous rating holds at 40, 45, and 50 °C ambient — no derating needed up to that point. At 55 °C it derates to 241 A, at 60 °C to 232 A, at 65 °C to 222 A, and at 70 °C to 213 A.

Integration into the Panel

The breaker measures 181 mm high by 140 mm wide by 86 mm deep — that's 7.13 by 5.51 by 3.39 inches. It's a SENTRON 3VA frame, designed for DIN-rail or screw-mount installation in standard distribution panels. The shunt trip (STL) allows remote tripping from an emergency-stop circuit or a PLC digital output — useful for safety disconnects or automated shutdown sequences.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy 3VA2225-5HL42-0KH0 and what is the lead time?

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 lead-time estimate.

What is the breaking capacity of 3VA2225-5HL42-0KH0 at 240 V?

The breaking capacity is 187 kA at 240 V AC. At 415 V and 440 V it's 121 kA, at 500 V it's 75.6 kA, and at 690 V it's 4.5 kA.

Does 3VA2225-5HL42-0KH0 include auxiliary switches and a shunt trip?

Yes, it comes factory-fitted with 2 auxiliary switches plus 1 trip alarm switch (HQ) and a shunt trip release (STL). No separate accessory ordering needed for this configuration.
