The 3VA2225-7HN32-0KL0: Footprint is 105 mm wide, 181 mm tall, 86 mm deep — fits standard panel cutouts for SENTRON 3VA2 frames. The shunt trip (STL) and the 2 auxiliary + 1 trip alarm + 1 electrical alarm switch complement give you remote trip capability and status feedback back to a PLC or SCADA. No communication module onboard, so it's a hardwired breaker — fine for most distribution panels where you don't need fieldbus integration. Power loss at rated load is 48 W, so factor that into enclosure ventilation.
