Railway-rated DC MCB, 50 A, C-curve
The Siemens SENTRON 5SY5250-7CC11 is a 2-pole miniature circuit breaker rated for universal current, with a C tripping characteristic and a 50 A rating. It is specifically designed for railway applications, carrying a 10 kA breaking capacity at 440 V DC per IEC 60947-2.
DC voltage and breaking capacity
The 10 kA breaking capacity at 440 V DC (per IEC 60947-2) is the figure that governs fault clearance on a DC bus — it must exceed the prospective short-circuit current at the installation point.
Panel integration and environment
Ambient range from -40 °C to 75 °C, with humidity derating above 55 °C. Polarity must be observed on the DC supply; the neutral conductor is not switched.
