Product details

The Siemens 5SY4232-8FA is a 2-pole miniature circuit breaker from the SENTRON series, rated 32 A with a D tripping characteristic. The 10 kA breaking capacity (per EN 60898) tells you it can safely interrupt a fault current up to that level at 400 V AC without welding or failing; that's the standard rating for most industrial panelboards and sub-distribution boards.

Where it goes and how it fits

This breaker snaps onto a DIN rail (35 mm) and occupies 2 modular width units (36 mm total). Depth is 76 mm, so it clears a standard 80 mm deep enclosure without the cover hitting the handle. Mounting position is any, which helps when the panel layout gets tight.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy 5SY4232-8FA and how do I get a price?

This part is sourced to order against an RFQ through independent distribution. Submit a request for quote (RFQ) to get current availability and pricing — no stock or price figures are listed here.

What is 5SY4232-8FA's listed depth (76 mm) on this component line?

The depth is 76 mm, which fits standard 80 mm deep enclosures. Width is 36 mm (2 modular units), height is 90 mm.

What compliance documentation does this brand provide for 5SY4232-8FA (RoHS, REACH, UL, IEC)?

The breaker carries a 10 kA breaking capacity per EN 60898, which is the relevant IEC standard for MCBs. It is designed for overvoltage category III and pollution degree 3. For RoHS/REACH/UL specifics, the manufacturer's declaration pack is typically available on request through the supply chain.
