Product details

The Siemens SENTRON 3VA2225-5JQ42-0KL0 is a 4-pole molded case circuit breaker rated for 250 A continuous current at 40 °C, with the same rating holding flat through 50 °C before derating to 238 A at 55 °C and 200 A at 70 °C. That flat thermal curve means you can load it to 250 A in a 50 °C panel without a derate factor — a real advantage when the enclosure runs warm from adjacent drives or transformers. Interrupting capacity hits 187 kA at 240 V, 121 kA at 415 V and 440 V, then drops to 75.6 kA at 500 V and 4.5 kA at 690 V. Communication function is built in, so it can talk to a higher-level controller or BMS without an add-on module.

Maximum power loss is 48 W.

The supplied basic switch is 3VA22255JQ420AA0 — that is the core breaker without the plug-in accessory base. Ground-fault monitoring uses summation current formation on L + N, so it catches residual currents without a separate GFCI module.
