Product details

The 30 kA breaking capacity at 400 V AC per IEC 60947-2 tells you this breaker can safely interrupt a fault current up to 30,000 amps without welding its contacts or blowing apart, which is important for industrial panels fed by a transformer with stiff secondary capacity. It also carries a 5 kA interrupting rating per UL 1077 and CSA C22.2 No. 235, so it's accepted in North American control-panel applications as a supplementary protector. The 2-pole unit (2P) switches both lines on a single-phase circuit or one leg of a three-phase system; it doesn't switch the neutral. Rated voltage is 400 V AC between phases, and it handles up to 72 V DC maximum, so it can also serve in DC control circuits within that limit.

The terminals accept combined (box lug / pin) conductors top and bottom, and the unit is sealable for applications requiring tamper-evident locking.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy 5SY7203-8CC and get a price?

We source and quote this breaker to order against an RFQ. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time — submit an RFQ through the page.

What is the difference between 5SY7203-8CC and 5SY6602-8?

The 5SY6602-8 is a 2 A, 2-pole, D-curve MCB from the same SENTRON family but with a lower 10 kA breaking capacity per IEC 60947-2 versus this 5SY7203-8CC's 30 kA. Both share the same 36 mm width and DIN-rail footprint, so the 5SY7203-8CC can drop into a panel designed for the 5SY6602-8 without rewiring — just verify the higher fault current rating is acceptable for the installation's available fault current.

What compliance documentation does the 5SY7203-8CC carry?

The breaker is rated per IEC 60947-2 (30 kA) and UL 1077 / CSA C22.2 No. 235 (5 kA). It's halogen-free and silicon-free. Specific RoHS/REACH declarations are available from Siemens upon request.
