The ampere frame rating for a circuit breaker designates how the circuit breaker should be configured. It also states the trip unit of the amp.
The "AF" stands for the Frame Ampere rating, so in this case will be 400 Amp Frame. The "AT" stands for Trip Ampere rating, and in this question will be 300 Amp Trip.
The proper ampere rating of a circuit breaker for an electric arc welder depends on the arc welder. Each is different. Look at the nameplate on the arc welder and choose the circuit breaker and wiring accordingly.
Yes a shunt trip breaker can be activated manually.
A shunt-trip breaker trips when voltage is applied to the coil. It does not self-reset when the voltage is removed, the breaker must be reset manually. The trip voltage can either latch or be applied momentarily, but must be de-energized before the breaker will reset.
A shunt trip breaker is reset the same way as an ordinary breaker, move the handle to the full off position and then to the full on position. First check the tripping circuit, sometimes a latch relay is used to hold the breaker shunt trip coil in the trip position. If this is the case then reset the latch relay first.

depends on the product, which you are using
AF refers to the ampere rating of the breaker frame and AT refers to the breaker trip rating in amps. These are not breakers that you would find in your home but industrial molded case breakers. The current trips can be changed out to different values all within the same frame size.
the breaker goes to trip position
250AF refers to the ampere rating of the breaker frame and 200AT refers to the breaker trip rating in amps. These are not breakers that you would find in your home but industrial molded case breakers. The current trips can be changed out to different values all within the same frame size.

Yes a shunt trip breaker can be activated manually.
The way to detect if a shunt trip breaker is malfunctioning is to manually trip the breaker. The shunt is usually wired through a auxiliary relay. Make sure that before you trip the breaker that the load can be shut off without taking a production line etc. off line. Trip the auxiliary relay using a test jumper to activate the relays coil. The breaker's handle will move to mid throw and the load will disconnect from the supply power. If the breaker trips then it is working properly. If the breaker does not trip trouble shoot the circuitry that is used to trip the breaker. Usual problem is an open circuit.
The cost of a shunt trip breaker depends on the amperage and number of poles the circuit connected to it needs. The cost of the shunt trip over a conventional breaker is substantially more.
The ambient temperature does have an effect on the tripping point of a breaker. If a breaker is operating at near capacity the additional ambient temperature will lower the breaker trip set point.
