Product details

The Siemens 5SY6563-8 is a SENTRON 5SY6 miniature circuit breaker (MCB) — 2-pole, 1P+N configuration, rated 63 A at 230 V AC with a D-tripping characteristic.

The 6 kA (EN 60898) and 10 kA (IEC 60947-2) breaking capacities tell you the maximum prospective short-circuit current the breaker can safely interrupt; the higher IEC figure applies when the breaker is used in industrial distribution per IEC 60947-2, while the EN 60898 value governs residential/commercial installations. For DC circuits, the breaker is rated 72 V DC maximum with a 15 kA breaking capacity per IEC 60947-2, and for UL/CSA applications it carries a 5 kA rating at 480Y/277 V AC per UL 1077 and CSA C22.2 No. 235.

Mounts via the quick-assembly system (DIN rail) in any position — no derating for orientation. Halogen-free and silicon-free construction matters in clean-room or food-processing environments where outgassing is a concern.
