Product details

The Siemens 5SY4610-5 is a 4-pole miniature circuit breaker from the SENTRON family, configured as 3P+N with neutral conductor switching. The interrupting capacity is rated at 10 kA per EN 60898-1 for household-type installations, and 20 kA per IEC 60947-2 for industrial panel duty. Under UL 1077 and CSA C22.2 No. 235, the rating is 5 kA. For DC circuits, it carries 15 kA per IEC 60947-2 at 60 V, with a maximum DC operating voltage of 72 V. The AC voltage rating is 400 V nominal, with a maximum of 440 V in both single-phase and multi-phase operation. Frequency is 50/60 Hz. Ambient temperature range spans -40 °C to 75 °C, with humidity derating above 55 °C.

Compliance documentation includes IEC/EN 60898-1, IEC/EN 60947-2, and UL 1077/CSA C22.2 No. 235 certifications.

Integration notes

Depth is 76 mm, width 72 mm, height 90 mm; installation depth is 70 mm. The combined terminal design accepts supply from any position, and the enclosure is sealable for tamper-proofing. Vibration resistance per IEC 60068-2-6 covers ±1 mm at 5 to 25 Hz and 50 m/s² at 25 to 150 Hz.

Frequently asked questions

What is the interrupting capacity of 5SY4610-5?

10 kA per EN 60898-1, 20 kA per IEC 60947-2, 15 kA DC per IEC 60947-2, and 5 kA per UL 1077/CSA C22.2 No. 235.

What does characteristic A mean on this breaker?

Characteristic A trips magnetically at 2 to 3 times rated current, providing faster overcurrent protection than B or C curves, suitable for sensitive loads like semiconductors or control transformers.

Where can I buy 5SY4610-5 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.

Will 5SY4610-5 drop into a panel specified around 5SY4304-7CV?

Both are 4-pole SENTRON MCBs on a DIN rail, but the 5SY4610-5 uses characteristic A while the 5SY4304-7CV uses a different curve; verify the tripping characteristic matches your circuit protection requirements before substituting.
