Product details

The 5SY4210-6CC: The B-curve means magnetic trip between 3 and 5 times rated current — standard for lighting and general-purpose loads where inrush isn't severe. Don't spec this for motor circuits; a C or D curve handles the higher start-up surge. The 10 kA SCCR at 400 V AC is the IEC fault-interruption ceiling; the 5 kA at AC per UL 1077 is the North American counterpart. If your panel is rated for a higher available fault current, you'll need to step up to a higher interrupting-capacity breaker.

At 36 mm wide and 76 mm deep, this occupies 2 modular-width units on a DIN rail — the quick assembly system snaps onto standard 35 mm rail. The -40 to 75 °C ambient range covers most indoor industrial environments, but above 55 °C you must derate per the humidity curve. Vibration resistance per IEC 60068-2-6 at ±1 mm / 5-25 Hz and 50 m/s² at 25-150 Hz means it holds up on machine-mounted sub-panels.

Supplementary devices and wiring

Both top and bottom terminals accept combined wiring, and the design allows installable supplementary devices — shunt trips, auxiliary contacts, alarm switches — which clip onto the same DIN footprint. The 1.3 W power loss per pole at rated current in hot operating state is low enough that derating for adjacent breakers in a multi-pole assembly is minimal, but always check the grouping factor if you're packing 10+ units side by side.

Frequently asked questions

What are the key ratings for the 5SY4210-6CC?

It is a 2-pole B-curve miniature circuit breaker with a 10 kA breaking capacity per EN 60898 at 400 V AC, and 5 kA per UL 1077 and CSA C22.2 No.235. It measures 36 mm wide by 76 mm deep and operates from -40 °C to 75 °C.

Where can I buy the 5SY4210-6CC?

The 5SY4210-6CC is sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution channels. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at the time of quote.

Will the 5SY4210-6CC drop into a panel specified for the 5SY5240-7?

No, not without checking the current rating. Both are 2-pole SENTRON MCBs on a 36 mm DIN-rail footprint, but the 5SY5240-7 is a higher-current variant with a different tripping characteristic. Verify the load's full-load amps and the required curve before swapping. The physical dimensions and mounting are identical, so rewiring is not required if the ratings match.

What compliance documentation does Siemens provide for the 5SY4210-6CC?

The breaker carries ratings per EN 60898, UL 1077, and CSA C22.2 No.235, which implies CE marking for the European market and UL/CSA listing for North America. Siemens typically provides RoHS and REACH declarations for SENTRON products; request these with your RFQ.
