Product details

Panel fit and installation

Mounts in any position via the quick-assembly system — snaps onto standard DIN rail. The neutral conductor is switched (1P+N), so it isolates both line and neutral on overcurrent.

Designed to IEC/EN 60898-1 (domestic/commercial MCB standard) and IEC/EN 60947-2 (industrial breaker standard) plus UL 1077. The dual rating means it can be specified for both European and North American projects where UL-recognized supplementary protection is accepted. Vibration resistance per IEC 60068-2-6: ±1 mm at 5 to 25 Hz, 50 m/s² at 25 to 150 Hz, so it holds up on machine-mounted panels.

Frequently asked questions

How do I get current pricing and availability for 5SY4506-6?

Pricing and stock are confirmed at quote time. Submit an RFQ against this order code; the part is sourced through independent distribution and quoted to order.

Will 5SY4506-6 drop into a panel specified around 5SY4116-7CV without rewiring?

Both are 2-module-wide (36 mm) SENTRON MCBs with the same mounting footprint, so the 5SY4506-6 fits the same DIN-rail position. However, the 5SY4116-7CV is a different rating and characteristic — verify the branch-circuit protection requirements before swapping. The mechanical interchange is straightforward; the electrical coordination is not automatic.

What compliance documentation does this brand provide for 5SY4506-6?

The breaker carries IEC/EN 60898-1 and IEC/EN 60947-2 certification, plus UL 1077. It is halogen-free and silicon-free. Standard documentation includes the declaration of conformity and the datasheet.
