Product details

Rated 250 A at 40 °C, it holds that current flat through 50 °C before derating to 223 A at 70 °C — useful for panels running warm near transformers or drives. Breaking capacity scales with system voltage: 121 kA at 240 V, 76 kA at 415 V, 53 kA at 440 V, and 17 kA at 500 V AC. That 121 kA figure at 240 V covers high-fault industrial services where the utility transformer is close; the 76 kA at 415 V handles most European 400 V distribution without an upstream current-limiting fuse. Front IP40 protects against tool entry; the body is not sealed for washdown.

Width 105 mm, height 158 mm, depth 70 mm.

Frequently asked questions

What is the breaking capacity of 3VM1225-4EE36-0AA2 at 415 V?

76 kA at 415 V AC. The breaker also carries 121 kA at 240 V, 53 kA at 440 V, and 17 kA at 500 V.

Where can I buy 3VM1225-4EE36-0AA2?

Sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution channels. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time — submit an RFQ for a firm position.

What does the TM220 release designation mean on this breaker?

TM220 indicates a thermal-magnetic overcurrent release with a fixed thermal trip curve and magnetic short-circuit pickup. It is a line-protection design, not a motor-protection or ground-fault variant.
