Product details

Siemens 5SY4304-6 SENTRON MCB — 3-pole, 4 A, B-curve

The B curve (3–5× In instantaneous trip) is standard for resistive and general-purpose loads: lighting, small heating circuits, control transformers.

Rated 4 A at 35 °C, derated to 3.76 A at 40 °C and 3.22 A at 60 °C — the thermal derating curve is published for panel environments where ambient runs above the 35 °C reference point. If your panel hits 50 °C, the breaker is good for 3.5 A continuous. The 10 kA (EN 60898) and 35 kA (IEC 60947-2) ratings mean the same hardware qualifies for both residential/commercial distribution boards (EN 60898) and industrial switchgear (IEC 60947-2) where prospective short-circuit current can be higher. The 15 kA DC rating per IEC 60947-2 covers DC circuits up to that fault level. IP20 with connected conductors means the terminals are finger-safe only when wired — no washdown rating; this stays in a dry enclosure.

Snap-on DIN rail mounting via the quick-assembly system; 36 mm width (2 MW), 76 mm depth, 90 mm height. Installation depth is 70 mm. Sealable for tamper-proof locking. Halogen-free and silicon-free construction — suitable for clean-room or semiconductor fab environments where outgassing is a concern.

Frequently asked questions

What is the breaking capacity of the 5SY4304-6?

10 kA per EN 60898 and 35 kA per IEC 60947-2 at AC, plus 15 kA at DC per IEC 60947-2.

What is the 5SY4304-6 used for?

It is a 3-pole miniature circuit breaker with B characteristic, rated 4 A, used for overcurrent and short-circuit protection of resistive and general-purpose AC loads in distribution boards and industrial control panels.

Where can I buy the 5SY4304-6?

Sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution; availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time.

Will the 5SY4304-6 drop into a panel that was specified around the 5SY4304-7CV?

Both are 3-pole SENTRON MCBs with the same 36 mm width and DIN-rail mounting, so mechanical fit is identical. However, the 5SY4304-7CV carries a different tripping characteristic or rating — verify the B-curve and 4 A rating match your circuit design before substituting.

What compliance documentation does Siemens provide for the 5SY4304-6?

The breaker is halogen-free and silicon-free; it is classified per IEC 81346-2 and DIN EN 61346-2 as function F. Overvoltage category III, pollution degree 3. Standard Siemens declarations (CE, UKCA, RoHS, REACH) apply — request the specific declaration at order time.
