Product details

Siemens 5SY4232-8CC — SENTRON 2P D-Curve MCB at 32 A

For UL 1077 supplementary protection applications, the interrupting rating is 5 kA.

What the D-curve means for your load

A D-curve trips between 10× and 20× rated current (320–640 A instantaneous magnetic release for this 32 A unit). That deliberate delay is sized for loads with high starting surges — think small motors, solenoid banks, or DC power-supply input capacitors. On a pump or compressor start, the D-curve lets the inrush pass without nuisance tripping, whereas a B- or C-curve would clear too fast and drop the line. The trade-off: arc-fault protection is less sensitive, so verify the downstream wiring is rated for the let-through energy.

Panel fit and wiring constraints

The 76 mm depth fits flush with most standard distribution boards.

Frequently asked questions

What conductor sizes does the 5SY4232-8CC accept?

Terminals accept 0.75 to 35 mm² solid or stranded copper. Tightening torque range is 2.5–3.5 N·m.

Will 5SY4232-8CC drop into a panel specified for 5SY6613-8?

Both are 2-pole SENTRON MCBs on the same DIN-rail footprint (2 width units, 36 mm wide). The 5SY4232-8CC is a 32 A D-curve; the 5SY6613-8 is a different rating and characteristic. Physical fit is identical — no rewiring needed for the mounting — but verify the trip curve and ampacity match your circuit design.
