Product details

Temperature derating and panel fit

The 5SY4316-5: Rated current derates with ambient temperature: 16 A at 35 °C, 15.04 A at 45 °C, 14.7 A at 50 °C, 14.37 A at 55 °C, and 14.02 A at 60 °C — the thermal-magnetic trip element responds to the actual temperature inside the panel, so a tightly packed enclosure or a high-ambient machine cabinet needs the derated value for the BOM calculation.

Frequently asked questions

What is the tripping characteristic of the 5SY4316-5?

The 5SY4316-5 uses tripping characteristic A — a tight overcurrent curve designed for semiconductor and sensitive electronic load protection where minimal inrush current is expected.
