Product details

This Siemens SENTRON 3VA2225-6JP32-0AJ0 is a 3-pole molded case circuit breaker (MCCB) rated for 250 A continuous current at 40 °C ambient, with a maximum breaking capacity of 242 kA at 240 V AC and 187 kA at 415/440 V AC — enough headroom to clear a high-fault utility feed without cascading upstream.

Breaking capacity and derating — what the numbers mean

At 500 V that drops to 121 kA, and at 690 V it falls to 4.5 kA — so if your panel feeds a 690 V bus, this breaker is not the right choice for high-fault locations. The continuous rating holds at 250 A from 40 °C up to 50 °C; above that it derates linearly to 200 A at 70 °C. A panel that runs hot near the breaker needs to account for that curve.

Frequently asked questions

How do I get current pricing and availability for 3VA2225-6JP32-0AJ0?

Submit an RFQ through this listing; the part is sourced to order and availability with current pricing is confirmed at quote time.

Will 3VA2225-6JP32-0AJ0 drop into a panel specified around 3VA2225-5JQ32-0AK0 without rewiring?

Both are 3-pole SENTRON MCCBs in the same frame size, so the physical footprint (105 mm wide, 181 mm tall, 86 mm deep) is identical — no rewiring of the bus bars or mounting holes. The difference is in the trip unit and communication options; verify the auxiliary switch count matches your control wiring.

What compliance documentation does Siemens provide for 3VA2225-6JP32-0AJ0?

Siemens SENTRON MCCBs carry UL 489, CSA C22.2 No. 5, and IEC 60947-2 certifications. RoHS and REACH declarations are available on request through the standard documentation portal.
