Product details

Rated current is 3 A at 35 °C ambient, but the datasheet provides a full derating curve: 2.88 A at 40 °C, 2.82 A at 45 °C, 2.76 A at 50 °C, 2.69 A at 55 °C, and 2.63 A at 60 °C. The B-curve's magnetic trip at 3–5× In means it will clear a hard short quickly, but it may nuisance-trip on the capacitor inrush of a small power supply if the supply is oversized relative to the 3 A rating.

The combined terminal design accepts top and bottom feed, and the supply cord position is any — no orientation restrictions for the line/load side. The 76 mm depth includes the breaker body; the 90 mm height is the overall profile including the toggle and terminals.

Frequently asked questions

What is the breaking capacity of 5SY4303-6?

10 kA per IEC 60898 and 35 kA per IEC 60947-2. The higher IEC 60947-2 rating qualifies it for supplementary protection in industrial panels where fault currents may exceed 10 kA.

What compliance documentation does Siemens provide for 5SY4303-6?

The breaker is certified to IEC / EN 60898-1, IEC / EN 60947-2, and UL 1077. It is halogen-free and silicon-free. Standard documentation includes the declaration of conformity, CE marking, and the manufacturer's test certificate.

Where can I buy 5SY4303-6 and how is it quoted?

Sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time — no stock count or price is published here.

Will 5SY4303-6 drop into a panel specified around 5SY4301-7CV?

Both are 3-pole SENTRON MCBs in the same 2-MW DIN-rail footprint, so the mechanical fit is identical. The difference is the current rating: 5SY4301-7CV is 1 A, while 5SY4303-6 is 3 A. If the panel's branch circuit is designed for 1 A, swapping to 3 A may require a conductor and load review.
