Product details

The 3VA2225-7KP32-0CA0: Breaking capacity is the headline here: 330 kA at 240 V, 242 kA at 415 V and 440 V, 187 kA at 500 V, and still 6.3 kA at 690 V. That's a lot of fault-interruption muscle for a 250 A frame — it's sized for high-available-fault-current panels where a standard MCCB would cascade upstream.

Rated continuous current holds at 250 A from 40 °C up to 50 °C ambient, then steps down: 238 A at 55 °C, 225 A at 60 °C, 213 A at 65 °C, and 200 A at 70 °C. That's a standard 3VA2 frame footprint — it'll drop into the same DIN-rail or screw-mount slot as other 3VA2 breakers. No need to re-drill the gland plate if you're swapping within the family. Maximum power loss is 50.5 W — not trivial in a sealed enclosure. Plan for ventilation or a larger cabinet if you're grouping several of these on a bus.

Frequently asked questions

What trip unit does the 3VA2225-7KP32-0CA0 use?

It uses the ETU850 electronic trip unit with communication function and undervoltage release.

Will 3VA2225-7KP32-0CA0 drop into a panel that was specified around 3VA1112-5EF32-0CA0 without rewiring?

The 3VA2 frame (181 x 105 x 86 mm) is a different physical size than the 3VA1 frame used on the 3VA1112-5EF32-0CA0, so it will not drop into the same mounting footprint without mechanical adaptation.
