Eaton HFDE322535 - 225 A, 480 V, 3-Pole Bolt-On Circuit Breaker | AmpState

The Eaton HFDE322535 is a 225 A, 480 V, 3-pole bolt-on molded case circuit breaker engineered to deliver reliable branch circuit protection for panelboards and load centers. Built for demanding environments, its secure bolt-on mounting creates a rigid, vibration-resistant bus connection that helps maintain consistent electrical performance over time. A thermal-magnetic trip unit provides stable, repeatable protection against both overloads and short circuits, helping protect downstream equipment and improve overall system longevity.

Why this breaker stands out

• Secure bolt-on mounting: Ensures a rigid, vibration-resistant bus connection that stays reliable through electrical transients and routine electrical activity.
• Thermal-magnetic trip unit: Delivers dependable overcurrent and short-circuit protection with predictable trip behavior, reducing nuisance trips and enabling coordinated protection in three-phase systems.
• OEM-compatible design: Specifically configured to be used with matching Eaton OEM load centers and panelboards, simplifying replacement, upgrades, and maintenance.
• High-current, three-phase protection: 225 A rating at 480 V is ideal for feeders and main circuit protection in commercial, light industrial, and some residential applications that require robust three-phase safeguarding.
• Three-pole configuration: Protects all three phases in a 3-phase system, supporting motor loads, compressors, pumps, and other equipment common in larger installations.

Ideal use scenarios

• Retrofit and upgrade projects in panelboards and load centers that demand a rugged, bolt-on three-pole solution.
• Commercial electrical rooms and light industrial spaces where 3-phase equipment (motors, conveyors, HVAC drives) require dependable protection at 480 V.
• New installations where a clearly defined branch-circuit protector is needed for high-current feeders and motor circuits.
