Product details

It is a 3-pole unit rated 250 A at 40 °C, with a full-scale value of 250 A and an initial setting of 50 A. The breaker carries a maximum breaking capacity of 187 kA at 240 V, 121 kA at 415 V, and 4.5 kA at 690 V — the 690 V figure is the tail-off point that governs its use on 690 V systems where fault current is low.

The headline rating is 250 A continuous at 40 °C, but the breaker is thermally rated across a range: it holds 250 A up to 50 °C, then derates to 238 A at 55 °C, 225 A at 60 °C, 213 A at 65 °C, and 200 A at 70 °C. The interrupting ratings span the common industrial voltages: 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.

It mounts in a standard distribution panel footprint — the 105 mm width is a 3-pole MCCB form factor that fits Siemens SENTRON busbar systems and panelboards.

Frequently asked questions

What is 3VA2225-5JQ32-0AJ0's listed depth?

The depth is 86 mm (3.39 in).

What is 3VA2225-5JQ32-0AJ0's listed width?

The width is 105 mm (4.13 in).

Will 3VA2225-5JQ32-0AJ0 drop into a panel specified around 3VA2225-5JQ32-0AK0 without rewiring?

The 3VA2225-5JQ32-0AJ0 and 3VA2225-5JQ32-0AK0 share the same SENTRON 3VA2 platform, same dimensions (105 mm wide, 181 mm high, 86 mm deep), and same 3-pole form factor. The -0AJ0 variant includes a communication function and a trip indicator; the -0AK0 may differ in auxiliary switch configuration or electronic trip unit. Physically they occupy the same panel cutout and busbar connection, but verify the auxiliary wiring and trip unit settings against your BOM before swapping — the auxiliary switch count and trip curve may differ.
