Product details

It switches both line and neutral (1P+N, 2 poles) and carries a 6 kA breaking capacity per EN 60898 and 30 kA per IEC 60947-2 / UL1077 — the higher figure applies when the part is applied under the industrial standard, so it handles fault currents up to 30 kA without upstream cascading in most panel builds.

Rated 1.6 A at 35 °C, derated to 1.52 A at 40 °C, 1.48 A at 45 °C, 1.44 A at 50 °C, and 1.4 A at 55 °C — the thermal derating curve is published, so a panel ambient above 35 °C reduces the continuous current the breaker can carry without nuisance tripping. The 6 kA rating under EN 60898 covers residential and light commercial service; the 30 kA rating under IEC 60947-2 / UL1077 covers industrial installations where available fault current is higher.

Mounting position any, fastening via quick assembly system — clips onto the rail without tools.

Frequently asked questions

What is the breaking capacity of 5SY6515-7?

6 kA per EN 60898 and 30 kA per IEC 60947-2 / UL1077 — the higher figure applies when the breaker is applied under the industrial standard.

What is the difference between 5SY6515-7 and 5SY4140-7?

The 5SY4140-7 is a 2-pole (1P+N) MCB with a B-curve and a different current rating; the 5SY6515-7 is a C-curve 1.6 A device. Both share the same SENTRON platform, same 2-MU width, and same DIN-rail footprint, so they are mechanically interchangeable in the panel — but the trip characteristic and rating differ, so verify the circuit requirements before substituting.

Where can I buy 5SY6515-7?

Sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution channels. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time.
