Product details

DC-rated miniature circuit breaker for industrial control circuits

This is a DC-only device; the evidence specifies DC operating voltage with polarity consideration, so it is not intended for AC branch circuits.

The C-curve (tripping characteristic class C) means the magnetic trip fires at 5 to 10 times rated current — 30 to 60 A for this 6 A unit — which suits moderate inrush loads like DC power supplies, contactor coils, and small DC motors without nuisance tripping on startup. The 2-pole design switches both conductors, and the neutral conductor is not switched, so this is a line-to-line DC breaker, not a line-to-neutral device.

Mounting and integration in a DC panel

Mounting position is any, which helps when orienting the breaker in a crowded enclosure. The breaker is sealable for tamper-proofing in metering or critical circuits.

The 5SY5206-7CC operates across a wide ambient temperature range from -40 °C to 75 °C, with humidity derating: max 95% RH up to 55 °C, tapering to 35% RH at 75 °C. Vibration resistance per IEC 60068-2-6 is ±1 mm at 5 to 25 Hz and 50 m/s² at 25 to 150 Hz — sufficient for installation on machine-mounted panels or near rotating equipment. Supplementary devices such as auxiliary switches, shunt trips, or alarm contacts can be installed, allowing remote status indication or emergency tripping.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy 5SY5206-7CC and get a price?

This part is sourced to order through independent distribution. Submit an RFQ for current availability and pricing — confirmed at quote time.

What is the closest functional alternative to 5SY5206-7CC?

The closest peer within the same SENTRON family is the 5SY5250-7, a 2-pole C-curve breaker rated for both AC and DC (400 VAC / 440 VDC) with a higher 15 kA DC breaking capacity per IEC 60947-2. The 5SY5206-7CC is DC-only and has a 10 kA DC rating. Both share the same 76 mm depth, 36 mm width, and DIN-rail mounting, so the 5SY5250-7 can drop into the same panel footprint if the application requires AC capability or a higher DC fault-current rating.

Will 5SY5206-7CC drop into a panel specified around 5SY5250-7 without rewiring?

Yes. Both breakers share identical dimensions (76 mm depth, 36 mm width, 90 mm height), the same 2-pole form factor, and the same DIN-rail quick-assembly mounting. No rewiring of the panel layout is needed. The key difference is that 5SY5206-7CC is DC-only, while 5SY5250-7 handles both AC and DC.

What compliance documentation is available for 5SY5206-7CC?

The breaker carries a DC rating per IEC 60947-2 (10 kA at 440 VDC). It is designed for pollution degree 3 and overvoltage category III. The product is halogen-free and silicon-free. For specific RoHS, REACH, or UL documentation, consult the Siemens SENTRON technical manual or request the declaration from your distributor.
