The Siemens 3VA2325-7KP42-0AA0 is a SENTRON molded case circuit breaker (MCCB) with four poles, rated for 250 A continuous current at 40 °C through 70 °C with no derating. It carries the ETU850 electronic trip unit, configurable for line protection. Interrupting capacity hits 330 kA at 240 V, 242 kA at 415 V, and 7.5 kA at 690 V — numbers that govern selectivity coordination in high-fault panels.
Lifecycle status is current — no end-of-life notice, no last-time-buy trigger. The part is sourced to order against an RFQ through independent distribution; availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time.
Compared to the 3VA1112-5EF32-0CA0 (a 3-pole, 125 A frame), this 4-pole 250 A unit with the ETU850 trip offers higher continuous rating and full-rated neutral protection. The 5SQ2670-2YA16 and 5SQ2670-0KA15 are older-generation Siemens MCCBs; the 3VA series uses a different mounting footprint and trip-unit interface, so a panel built for those will likely need rework to accept this breaker.
Dimensions: 184 mm wide, 248 mm tall, 110 mm deep. IP40 on the front — suitable for enclosed panel mounting where the door provides additional sealing. Rated insulation voltage 800 V. The ETU850 trip unit includes communication and other measurement functions, which means it can feed data to a higher-level monitoring system over the breaker's internal bus.
