Product details

The Siemens SENTRON 5SY6608-7 is a 4-pole miniature circuit breaker (3P+N) with a C tripping characteristic, rated 8 A at AC 50/60 Hz.

What the ratings mean in the panel

At 8 A that means the magnetic trip holds through a 40–80 A surge, so it won't nuisance-trip on a motor start. Temperature derating is baked in: at 40 °C the continuous rating drops to 7.51 A, at 50 °C to 6.99 A. Mount in any position, install depth 70 mm.

Compliance and environment

Sealable to prevent tampering. Halogen-free and silicon-free construction. Touch-protected terminals.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy 5SY6608-7 and what is the lead time?

Sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time — submit an RFQ for the latest position.

What is the difference between 5SY6608-7 and 5SY7210-7CC?

The 5SY7210-7CC is a 10 A C-curve 2-pole MCB; 5SY6608-7 is 8 A C-curve 4-pole. Same SENTRON family, same breaking capacities, same footprint per pole. The 8 A rating on the 4-pole is the deciding factor for load current and the number of protected phases.

What compliance documentation does Siemens provide for 5SY6608-7?

The part carries approvals per EN 60898 and IEC 60947-2. It is halogen-free and silicon-free. Specific RoHS/REACH declarations and the full compliance package are available on request with an RFQ.
