Product details

The 15 kA DC rating at 60 V makes it usable in DC sub-distribution for control power supplies or battery-backed circuits. It's built for a DIN-rail panel: 36 mm wide (2 modular width units), 76 mm deep, 90 mm tall, with a 70 mm installation depth. Rated for ambient temperatures from -40 °C to 75 °C, with humidity derating: max 95% RH at 55 °C, tapering to 35% at 75 °C.

The 5SY4216-7 is certified to IEC / EN 60898-1 (the household breaker standard) and IEC / EN 60947-2 (the industrial breaker standard), plus UL 1077 and CSA C22.2 No. 235 for North American supplementary protection.

Frequently asked questions

What are the key breaking capacity ratings for the 5SY4216-7?

10 kA per EN 60898-1 at 400 V AC, 20 kA per IEC 60947-2 at 400 V AC, and 15 kA per IEC 60947-2 at 60 V DC. For UL 1077 supplementary protection, it's rated 5 kA at 440 V AC.

What does the C-curve characteristic mean for this breaker?

The C-curve trips at 5 to 10 times rated current, making it suitable for circuits with moderate inrush — motor starters, small transformers, and lighting panels. It's the most common curve for general industrial and commercial distribution.

Where can I buy the 5SY4216-7 and how is it quoted?

The 5SY4216-7 is sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time — no stock numbers or prices on the public page, but a quick RFQ gets you a straight answer.
