Its interrupting capacity hits 242 kA at 240 VAC, dropping to 187 kA at 415 V and 440 V, 121 kA at 500 V, and 4.5 kA at 690 V — so on a 480 V industrial service you've got 121 kA of fault-clearing headroom, enough for high-available-fault-current switchgear.
Thermal derating and power loss
Above that, it derates linearly: 241 A at 55 °C, 232 A at 60 °C, 222 A at 65 °C, and 213 A at 70 °C. Maximum power loss is 48 W, which matters for enclosure thermal calculations.
Auxiliary configuration and releases
The shunt trip lets a PLC or safety relay kill the breaker remotely — common on emergency-stop circuits or automated shutdown sequences. The basic switch supplied is 3VA2225-6HN32-0AA0.
Trip indicator and voltage trigger are present, so you get local visual status and the ability to wire a remote trip signal.
