Product details

DC-rated MCB for industrial DC distribution

The installation depth is 70 mm, which is the dimension behind the panel face — relevant for enclosure depth planning. Mounts in any position. The fastening method is the quick assembly system typical of SENTRON MCBs — clips onto the DIN rail without tools.

Environmental and derating considerations

Ambient temperature range is -40 °C to 75 °C, but the continuous current rating must be derated above 55 °C: the breaker is rated for max 95 % humidity at 55 °C, 55 % at 70 °C, and 35 % at 75 °C. In a hot panel, the 32 A nominal rating may need to be reduced — the C-curve thermal element responds to ambient temperature, so a 32 A breaker in a 70 °C enclosure may trip below 32 A on a sustained load. Vibration resistance per IEC 60068-2-6 is ±1 mm displacement at 5 to 25 Hz and 50 m/s² acceleration at 25 to 150 Hz — adequate for installation on machinery or in enclosures subject to typical industrial vibration, but not rated for continuous high-amplitude vibration near rotating equipment without additional support.

Frequently asked questions

What is the closest functional alternative to 5SY5232-7CC?

The 5SY5240-7 is the closest sibling — same 2-pole C-curve footprint, same 440 V DC rating, but rated 40 A instead of 32 A. It also carries a 15 kA DC breaking capacity per IEC 60947-2 versus the 10 kA on the 5SY5232-7CC, so it offers higher fault-current headroom if the panel SCCR allows it. The 5SY5240-7 is also AC/DC rated, while the 5SY5232-7CC is DC-only. Both share the same mechanical dimensions and mounting, so a swap requires no panel rework.
