Part of the SENTRON 3VA5 series, this 200-amp molded case circuit breaker provides reliable long-time and instantaneous protection for commercial and industrial facilities. The unit integrates a TM230 thermal-magnetic trip unit with adjustable magnetic settings to fine-tune coordination. Designed for panel mount installations, it fits seamlessly into Siemens P1 through P5 panelboards and switchboards. This breaker serves as a modern, current-limiting replacement for older HFD62B200 devices.

Product FAQs
6 answers
What panelboards accept the 3VA5220-6EC61-0AA0?
This Siemens 3VA52 frame breaker is designed to install seamlessly into Siemens P1, P2, P3, P4, and P5 panelboards, as well as compatible switchboards and Motor Control Centers (MCCs).
How does the adjustable magnetic trip function work on this breaker?
While the thermal overload rating is fixed at a continuous 200 amps, the TM230 trip unit allows electricians to manually adjust the instantaneous short-circuit pickup. This flexibility helps optimize selective coordination with downstream electrical devices in your distribution system.
Is the 3VA5220-6EC61-0AA0 rated for use in DC electrical circuits?
Yes. Beyond its standard AC voltage limits, this molded case circuit breaker is fully rated for DC applications, delivering an interrupting capacity of 85kA at both 250VDC and 500VDC.
Can I use this 3VA5 breaker to replace older Siemens FD frame breakers?
Yes, the 3VA5220-6EC61-0AA0 serves as a modern, current-limiting upgrade and is a direct replacement for legacy HFD62B200 molded case circuit breakers.
Is the 3VA5220-6EC61-0AA0 suitable for reverse-feed wiring setups?
Yes, this Sentron series unit is reverse-feed rated. Electricians can safely interchange the line and load connections during installation to accommodate specific panelboard wiring layouts.
Does this breaker feature an electronic or thermal-magnetic trip unit?
The 3VA5220-6EC61-0AA0 utilizes a TM230 thermal-magnetic trip unit. If your facility requires advanced electronic trip functionality or integrated metering, you will need to specify a breaker from the Siemens 3VA6 series instead.
