Rated 400 V AC and 440 V DC, with a maximum DC voltage of 500 V, so it handles standard 400 V three-phase line-to-line or 440 V battery-bank isolation without derating. Universal-current design (AC/DC) simplifies stocking — one part covers both supply types, but note the DC polarity marking on the supply cord position; polarity matters on DC installation. ## Panel integration and environment Occupies 36 mm width — 2 width units at 18 mm each — so it fits a standard 2-pole slot in a distribution board. Combined terminals top and bottom accept solid or stranded conductors from 0.75 to 35 mm², covering everything from 1.5 mm² lighting circuits up to 10 mm² feeder tails. Sealable design allows locking the handle in OFF position for lockout/tagout compliance.","metaTitle":"Siemens 5SY5232-6 SENTRON MCB, 32 A, 2-Pole, B-Curve, 10 kA","metaDescription":"Siemens SENTRON 5SY5232-6 miniature circuit breaker, 32 A, 2-pole, B characteristic, 10 kA breaking capacity AC/DC, 400 V AC / 440 V DC, IP20, halogen-free, current production.","metaKeywords":null},"attributes":{"series":null,"packageCase":null,"mountingType":null,"rohsStatus":null,"productStatus":"Active","categoryPath":["2-Pole MCB (DIN Rail)"],"specifications":{"Depth":"76 mm","Solid":"0.75 ... 35 mm²","Width":"36 mm","title":"5SY5232-6","Height":"90 mm","Sealable":"Yes","Stranded":"0.75 ... 35 mm²","Rated Value":"50/60 Hz","description":"Circuit breaker Universal current 440 V DC 400 V AC 10kA, 2-pole, B, 32A","Halogen-Free":"Yes","Silicon-Free":"Yes","Mounting type":"Quick assembly system","During Storage":"-40 ... +75 °C","Number of poles":"2","Type of voltage":"AC/DC","lifecycle_stage":"current","Mounting position":"any","Installation depth":"70 mm","Product brand name":"SENTRON","Ambient temperature":"-40 ... +70 °C","Product designation":"Miniature circuit breaker","Protection class IP":"IP20, with connected conductors","at AC / rated value":"400 V","at DC / rated value":"440 V","Overvoltage category":"III","Combined Terminal Top":"Yes","Energy limiting class":"3","Number of width units":"2","Number of poles / Note":"2P","acc. to DIN EN 61346-2":"F","acc. to DIN EN 81346-2":"F","Combined Terminal Bottom":"Yes","circuit-breaker / Design":"5SY5","Suitability for operation":"universal current","at DC / acc. to EN 60898-2":"10 kA","Current / at AC / rated value":"32 A","Tripping characteristic class":"B","at DC / rated value / maximum":"500 V","acc. to EN 60898 / rated value":"10 kA","Position / of power supply cord":"AC as required, observe DC polarity","Product feature / Touch protection":"Yes","Influence of the surrounding temperature":"max. 95% to 55°C, max. 55% to 70°C, max. 35% to 75°C","at DC / acc. to IEC 60947-2 / rated value":"15 kA","Tightening torque / with screw-type terminals":"2.5 ... 3.5 N·m","Product function / neutral conductor switching":"No","with multi-phase operation / at AC / rated value":"440 V","with single-phase operation / at AC / rated value":"440 V","Mechanical service life (switching cycles) / typical":"10 000","Tightening torque [lbf·in] / with screw-type terminals":"22 ... 31 lbf·in","AWG number / as coded connectable conductor cross section":"18 ... 4"}},"commercial":{"minOrderQty":null,"leadTime":null,"referencePrice":null,"stockQuantity":0,"priceTiers":null},"links":{"datasheetUrl":"https://cdn.aoctrl.com/1d9f8c213fe3ed62dadc54406ac0c8f7.pdf","sourceUrl":"https://support.industry.siemens.com/webbackend/api/ProductSupport/TechnicalData?language=en&region=cn&productId=176363&mlfb=5SY5232-6"},"ai":{"faq":[{"question":"Where can I buy 5SY5232-6 and how do I get a price?","answer":"Sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution.

The difference is the tripping characteristic: 5SY3132-6 uses a C-curve (5–10× In), while 5SY5232-6 uses a B-curve (3–5× In). If the original design called for a C-curve, swapping to a B-curve may cause nuisance tripping on loads with higher inrush — verify the load type before substituting."},{"question":"What compliance documentation does Siemens provide for 5SY5232-6?","answer":"The breaker carries EN 60898 (AC) and EN 60898-2 (DC) ratings, overvoltage category III, and is halogen-free and silicon-free.
