Under UL 1077 and CSA C22.2 No. 235 it carries a 5 kA interrupting rating, so for a panel built to North American code the available fault current at the breaker must not exceed 5 kA.
The 6 A rating holds at 35 °C. Above that the breaker derates: 5.51 A at 40 °C, 5.25 A at 45 °C, 4.97 A at 50 °C, 4.69 A at 55 °C. If the panel ambient runs 50 °C, size the circuit for 5 A continuous, not 6 A.
10 kA per EN 60898 and 5 kA per UL 1077 / CSA C22.2 No. 235.
Both are 2-pole SENTRON MCBs on the same DIN-rail footprint and modular width, so mechanical fit is identical. The difference is the tripping curve — 5SY4206-6CC is B-curve (3-5x In), while 5SY7210-7CC is a different characteristic. Verify the curve matches the load type before substitution.
