Product details

The 2 A rating keeps it on lighting or control circuits, not branch feeders. Breaking capacity is the real selector here. The 5 kA per UL 1077 / CSA C22.2 No. 235 tells you it's listed for North American supplementary protection — not a branch-circuit listed breaker under UL 489. That distinction decides whether it passes a panel inspection in a UL 508A assembly. DC side: rated 72 V max, 15 kA per IEC 60947-2. That's enough for a 48 VDC control bus or a small battery string, but check polarity — the breaker is marked for DC use but the evidence doesn't specify unidirectional or bidirectional DC interruption. If you're switching a DC motor or a battery bank, confirm the DC switching polarity with the manufacturer's application note.

Mounting position any, which saves head-scratching in a crowded enclosure. Temperature range -40 to 75 °C with a derating curve above 40 °C. If this breaker sits near a heat source — say above a VFD in a sealed cabinet — check the thermal curve for the actual 2 A load at ambient.

The sealable feature (lockable toggle) is useful for lockout/tagout on a machine circuit.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy 5SY6202-8 and get a price?

This part is sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time — submit an RFQ for a firm commercial response.

Will 5SY6202-8 drop into a panel specified around 5SY4140-7 without rewiring?

Both are 2-pole SENTRON MCBs on the same DIN-rail footprint, but the 5SY4140-7 is a C-curve at a different current rating. The 5SY6202-8 is a D-curve at 2 A — same mechanical fit, different trip characteristic and amp rating. Check the load's inrush profile before swapping; the physical swap is straightforward, the protection coordination is not automatic.
