Product details

Breaking capacity drops from 242 kA at 240 V to 187 kA at 415/440 V, then to 121 kA at 500 V, and 4.5 kA at 690 V. The steep fall at 690 V means this breaker is optimized for 240–500 V systems; at 690 V the SCCR is only 4.5 kA, so verify the available fault current if deploying on a 690 V line. The adjustable thermal-magnetic trip unit covers 375 A to 2 500 A maximum setting range, giving flexibility to coordinate with downstream breakers in a selective distribution scheme.

Rated 250 A continuous from 40 °C up to 50 °C ambient, then derates linearly to 213 A at 70 °C. In a sealed panel with poor airflow, expect to apply the 70 °C column.

Maximum power loss is 50.5 W at rated current — factor this into enclosure thermal calculations, especially when grouping multiple breakers.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy 3VA2225-6HL32-0BL0 and how do I get a price?

Sourced to order against an RFQ through independent distribution channels. Submit a request for quote with your target quantity and delivery window; availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time.

When sourcing 3VA2225-6HL32-0BL0, what's the closest functional alternative?

The 3VA2225-5HN42-0BB0 is a peer variant in the same 3VA2225 frame but with a different trip unit and accessory configuration. It shares the same 250 A frame size and 3-pole form factor, so it drops into the same panel cutout and busbar pattern, but verify the trip curve and auxiliary switch count match your BOM before substituting.

What is the depth of this MCCB?

86 mm (3.39 in) deep, which is shallow enough for standard 600 mm deep enclosures with cable bending radius clearance behind the breaker.

What compliance documentation does Siemens provide for this breaker?

As a standard SENTRON MCCB, it carries IEC 60947-2 certification and UL 489 listing. RoHS and REACH declarations are available through Siemens Industry Online Support. No specific document numbers are on this listing, but the brand provides full compliance packages on request.
