Product details

It's rated for 6 kA breaking capacity per EN 60898 at 400 V AC, and carries a 5 kA interrupting rating per UL 1077 and CSA C22.2 No.235. This is the part you spec when you need a standard 2-module-width (36 mm) MCB for a 230/400 V distribution board or control panel feeder — B-curve means it trips between 3 and 5 times rated current, so it's the go-to for general-purpose resistive and small inductive loads where you don't want nuisance trips from inrush.

The 5 kA rating per UL 1077 means it's also recognized for North American supplementary protection applications, so it fits panels built to either IEC or UL conventions. The B-curve (3-5x In) is the right choice for cable protection and general loads; don't use it for motor circuits where C or D curves handle the higher inrush. The 2-pole design switches both phase and neutral (or two phases in a split-phase system), with a 400 V AC rated voltage per pole.

Mounting position is any orientation. The 76 mm depth (70 mm installation depth) fits standard 80 mm deep enclosures. Supplementary devices (shunt trips, auxiliary contacts) can be installed on either side, so you can add remote tripping or status feedback without swapping the breaker.

Rated for ambient temperatures from -40 °C to +75 °C, with humidity derating: 95% RH up to 55 °C, 55% RH up to 70 °C, 35% RH up to 75 °C. Halogen-free and silicon-free construction. Vibration resistance per IEC 60068-2-6: ±1 mm at 5-25 Hz, 50 m/s² at 25-150 Hz.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy 5SY6220-6CC and get a price?

The 5SY6220-6CC is sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time.

Will 5SY6220-6CC drop into a panel specified around 5SY4116-6CC without rewiring?

Both are 2-pole SENTRON MCBs on the same DIN-rail footprint (36 mm width, 2 MW), so the mechanical fit is identical. The 5SY6220-6CC is a B-curve; the 5SY4116-6CC is a different rating/curve — verify the tripping characteristic matches your circuit protection requirements before swapping.

What compliance documentation does Siemens provide for 5SY6220-6CC?

The 5SY6220-6CC carries ratings per EN 60898 (6 kA) and UL 1077 / CSA C22.2 No.235 (5 kA). It's halogen-free and silicon-free. Standard Siemens documentation includes CE declaration, RoHS/REACH compliance statements, and the product datasheet.
