Product details

At DC (60 V nominal, 72 V max) it interrupts 15 kA per IEC 60947-2. Rated operational voltage is 400 V AC (440 V max single- or multi-phase), 50/60 Hz.

IP20 with conductors connected; pollution degree 3 (conductive pollution typical of control rooms and light industrial floors). Sealable — panel builders can lock the toggle position after commissioning.

Environmental and derating

Ambient temperature range -40 °C to 75 °C, but relative humidity derates above 55 °C: max 95% RH at 55 °C, dropping to 55% at 70 °C and 35% at 75 °C.

Current-production status per Siemens lifecycle data. The 5SY6206-6 carries dual-standard certification: EN 60898-1 (household-type MCB) and IEC 60947-2 (industrial MCB), plus UL 1077 / CSA C22.2 No. 235 for North American acceptance. Overvoltage category III, energy limitation class 3.

Frequently asked questions

What are the key ratings of the 5SY6206-6?

2-pole B-curve MCB, 6 kA breaking capacity per EN 60898-1, 30 kA per IEC 60947-2 at 400 V AC, and 15 kA at 60 V DC. Rated voltage 400 V AC / 60 V DC, frequency 50/60 Hz.

Will the 5SY6206-6 drop into a panel specified for 5SY4140-7?

Both are SENTRON 2-pole MCBs on the same DIN-rail footprint (36 mm wide, 2 MW), so the mechanical fit is identical. The difference is the tripping characteristic — the 5SY6206-6 is B-curve, while the 5SY4140-7 is a different curve or rating. Check the branch-circuit coordination study before swapping; the physical swap takes seconds.

What compliance documentation does Siemens provide for the 5SY6206-6?

The MCB is certified to IEC / EN 60898-1, IEC / EN 60947-2, and UL 1077 / CSA C22.2 No. 235. It is halogen-free and silicon-free. Standard Siemens declarations of conformity (CE, UKCA) and RoHS/REACH statements are available with the shipment.
