Product details

SENTRON 5SY4404-5 — 4-pole MCB, Characteristic A

Rated 400 V AC with a breaking capacity of 10 kA per EN 60898-1 and 35 kA per IEC 60947-2 — the higher figure under the industrial standard gives you headroom for high-fault panels where the utility transformer is close. DC side handles 60 V at 15 kA per IEC 60947-2, and UL 1077 listing at 5 kA covers North American panel acceptance. Snap-on mount to DIN rail, 4 MW width (72 mm), any mounting position.

Breaking capacity and selectivity — what the dual rating means

The 10 kA rating under EN 60898-1 is the domestic / light commercial ceiling; the 35 kA under IEC 60947-2 is the industrial rating that matters when you're coordinating downstream of a transformer or a high-capacity upstream breaker. Not for motor starting; that's C or D territory.

That -40 °C floor makes it usable in unheated enclosures or cold-chain facilities.

Sealable cover option available for metering or tamper-proof installs. Quick assembly system for ganging multiple poles or adding auxiliaries. Pollution degree 3, overvoltage category III — rated for fixed installations inside industrial panels, not for outdoor weatherproof use.

Frequently asked questions

What is the breaking capacity of 5SY4404-5?

10 kA per EN 60898-1, 35 kA per IEC 60947-2 at 400 V AC, and 15 kA at 60 V DC per IEC 60947-2. UL 1077 rating is 5 kA.

What compliance documentation does Siemens provide for 5SY4404-5?

The MCB carries dual certification to IEC/EN 60898-1 and IEC/EN 60947-2, plus UL 1077 and CSA C22.2 No.235. It is halogen-free and silicon-free, meeting clean-room material restrictions.

Where can I buy 5SY4404-5 and get current pricing?

Sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution. Availability and current pricing confirmed at quote time — submit an RFQ for a firm price and lead time.

Will 5SY4404-5 drop into a panel specified for 5SY4140-7 without rewiring?

Both are 4-pole SENTRON MCBs on the same DIN-rail footprint, so the mechanical fit and busbar connection are identical. The difference is the trip curve: 5SY4404-5 is characteristic A (fast), while 5SY4140-7 is characteristic C (motor/inrush rated). Verify the load type before swapping — a C-curve replacement for an A-curve application may not trip fast enough to protect sensitive electronics.
