Product details

Siemens SENTRON 3VA2225-8HL32-0AH0 — 250 A MCCB for Line Protection

It carries a 440 kA interrupting capacity at 240 VAC, dropping to 330 kA at 415/440 VAC, 220 kA at 500 VAC, and 52.5 kA at 690 VAC — so the available fault current at your service voltage is the number that governs whether this breaker clears a bolted fault without cascading upstream.

Thermal Derating and Continuous Current

Above that it derates: 241 A at 55 °C, 232 A at 60 °C, 222 A at 65 °C, and 213 A at 70 °C.

Physical Fit and Auxiliary Configuration

Environmental and Electrical Margins

Maximum power dissipation is 48 W at rated load — a factor to include in enclosure thermal calculations if you're packing multiple breakers in a small cabinet.

Frequently asked questions

What are the interrupting capacity ratings for 3VA2225-8HL32-0AH0 at different voltages?

440 kA at 240 VAC, 330 kA at 415 VAC and 440 VAC, 220 kA at 500 VAC, and 52.5 kA at 690 VAC.

Where can I buy 3VA2225-8HL32-0AH0?

This part is sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution channels. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time.

What is the continuous current rating and how does it derate with temperature?

Rated 250 A continuous from 40 °C to 50 °C ambient. Derates to 241 A at 55 °C, 232 A at 60 °C, 222 A at 65 °C, and 213 A at 70 °C.
