Product identity and key ratings
The Siemens SENTRON 3VA2325-7JP32-0AA0 is a 3-pole molded case circuit breaker (MCCB) rated for line protection, carrying a continuous current Iu of 250 A flat from 40 °C through 70 °C — no derating needed across typical panel ambient temperatures. Breaking capacity is specified per voltage: 330 kA at 240 V, 242 kA at 415 V and 440 V, 187 kA at 500 V, and 7.5 kA at 690 V. That 330 kA figure at 240 V covers high-fault utility feeds; the drop at 690 V (7.5 kA) is typical for a 250 A frame and still adequate for most 690 V motor branch circuits. The electronic trip unit is an ETU550 — a programmable, communicating release that supports selective coordination and integrates with the SENTRON power-management ecosystem. Communication function is onboard, so it can report status and trip events without an add-on module.
Physical fit and panel integration
Dimensions: 248 mm high, 138 mm wide, 110 mm deep. The 3-pole frame mounts directly onto a DIN rail or can be screw-fixed to a backplate. Front protection is IP40 — suitable for enclosed switchgear but not for washdown environments. No undervoltage release or shunt trip is fitted as standard (Undervoltage Release: No, Voltage Trigger: No), but the product extension allows a motor drive accessory to be added later if remote charging or remote closing is needed.
