Product details

What this 5SY7203-8MA is and why the D curve matters

Mounts on DIN rail, 2 modular width units wide, any position.

The magnetic-only trip (no thermal bimetal) means this breaker responds solely to short-circuit currents, not overloads — it is a supplementary protector for a circuit already protected upstream, or for a specific load with known inrush. The 3 A rating at 440 V AC single- or multi-phase, together with the D curve, suits it for a 3 A motor branch or a control transformer primary. The 10 000 mechanical operating cycles give a reasonable service life for a panel that sees occasional switching, not daily cycling.

Frequently asked questions

What is the 5SY7203-8MA's breaking capacity and what standard certifies it?

The breaking capacity is 30 kA per IEC 60947-2, which covers industrial circuit-breaker performance under short-circuit conditions.
