Product details

It carries dual breaking capacities — 6 kA per IEC/EN 60898-1 for general branch-circuit protection, and 15 kA per IEC 60947-2 / UL1077 for industrial panel applications where higher fault current is expected.

At 32 A continuous, the 5SY6232-6 handles a 7 kW resistive load on a 230/400 VAC system. Temperature derating is published: full 32 A up to 35 °C, then 30.46 A at 40 °C, 29.66 A at 45 °C, 28.86 A at 50 °C, and 28 A at 55 °C. The 5SY6232-6 is sealable, halogen-free, and silicon-free — relevant for food-and-bev or pharmaceutical lines where outgassing or contamination is a concern.

Integration notes

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy 5SY6232-6?

The 5SY6232-6 is sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time.

What is the breaking capacity of 5SY6232-6?

6 kA per IEC/EN 60898-1 and 15 kA per IEC 60947-2 / UL1077.

What compliance documentation does Siemens provide for 5SY6232-6?

The 5SY6232-6 complies with IEC/EN 60898-1 and IEC/EN 60947-2 / UL1077. It is halogen-free and silicon-free. Standard documentation includes the declaration of conformity and the datasheet.

Will 5SY6232-6 drop into a panel specified around 5SY4116-6CC?

Both are 2-pole SENTRON MCBs on the same DIN-rail footprint, but the 5SY6232-6 is a 32 A B-curve while the 5SY4116-6CC is a 16 A C-curve. The physical fit is identical; the electrical rating and trip characteristic differ — verify the branch-circuit protection requirements before substituting.
