Product details

2-pole MCB with neutral switching for 1+N circuits

The 55 mm installation depth fits standard DIN-rail enclosures; IP20 finger-safe terminals suit dry indoor panels.

C-curve selectivity and 3 kA SCCR

The 3 kA rated breaking capacity per EN 60898 is the interrupting rating at 400 V AC — sufficient for downstream protection in a panel fed by a larger upstream device. Energy limiting class 3 means it restricts let-through energy enough to protect downstream wiring and connected equipment within its rating.

Rated overvoltage category 3, suitable for fixed-installation distribution boards. The neutral pole is switched, so this unit replaces the common 1P+N configuration where a separate neutral bar would otherwise be required. Supply voltage frequency is 50 Hz — confirm compatibility on 60 Hz systems if used outside the standard 50 Hz network.

Frequently asked questions

What is the closest functional second-source for 5SQ2570-2YA16?

The 4-pole sibling 5SQ2670-2YA16 shares the same C-curve, 16 A rating, and 3 kA breaking capacity, but adds two poles for three-phase + neutral switching. It will not drop into a 2-pole panel position without rewiring the busbar and enclosure.

Where can I buy 5SQ2570-2YA16 and get current pricing?

Sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time — submit an RFQ for a firm offer.

What compliance documentation does SENTRON provide for 5SQ2570-2YA16?

The part is designed per EN 60898. Standard documentation includes the manufacturer's declaration of conformity; specific certs (UL, CSA, RoHS, REACH) should be verified against the lot-specific documentation available at order.
