Belonging to the Siemens Sentron FD-Frame family, the FXD62B225 handles 225A commercial and industrial loads. It provides reliable long-time and instantaneous (LI) protection for demanding electrical systems. This unit-mount MCCB installs into Siemens P1, P2, and P3 panelboards or Sentron switchboards. It requires the TA1FD350A lug kit for termination, as lugs are not included. Rated for 35kAIC at 480VAC, it features an adjustable magnetic trip, HACR rating, and reverse feed capability.
What is the difference between the Siemens FXD62225 and the FXD62B225?
Both are 225A, 2-pole Sentron FD-frame circuit breakers with identical performance ratings. The "B" in the FXD62B225 catalog number signifies it is supplied from the factory without lugs. The standard FXD62225 comes with line and load lugs pre-installed.
Which lug kits are compatible with the FXD62B225 breaker?
Because this breaker is supplied bare, terminal lugs must be purchased separately. You can use the TA1FD350A aluminum lug kit, which accepts 6 AWG to 350 kcmil copper or aluminum wire. For copper-only applications, use the TC1FD350 copper mechanical lug.
Which Siemens enclosures and panelboards will accept this breaker?
This unit-mount FD-frame breaker is designed for bolt-on installation into Siemens Sentron enclosures, P1, P2, and P3 panelboards, as well as Sentron switchboards and motor control centers.
How does the trip adjustability work on the FXD62B225?
This breaker features a non-interchangeable thermal-magnetic trip unit. It has a fixed thermal element for continuous long-time overload protection and an adjustable magnetic element, allowing you to fine-tune the instantaneous short-circuit trip threshold for your specific load.
Is the FXD62B225 rated for reverse feed applications?
Yes. This circuit breaker does not have line or load restrictions printed on the collar, making it UL listed for reverse feed applications. This is common when the breaker is used as a main disconnect in certain generator or solar tie-in panels.
Does this Sentron breaker replace older F-Frame models?
Yes, the Sentron FD-frame serves as a modern replacement for legacy Siemens F-Frame circuit breakers. When retrofitting, verify that your existing mounting hardware and lug clearances match the 4.5 x 9.5 x 4.0 inch footprint of the new breaker.
