Product details

32 A B-curve 2-pole MCB for panel protection

The Siemens 5SY7232-6 is a 32 A, B-curve, 2-pole miniature circuit breaker from the SENTRON 5SY7 series, rated for 400 V AC. The B-curve (3–5× In magnetic trip) suits resistive and general-purpose loads; it's the right call for lighting, control transformers, and distribution subfeeds where you don't want nuisance trips from motor inrush.

Halogen-free and silicon-free construction. Overvoltage category III, energy limiting class 3. Touch protection is built in. Suitability is marked for mechanical engineering and industry applications.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy 5SY7232-6 and how is it quoted?

This part is sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time — submit an RFQ for a firm commercial offer.

What is the closest functional second-source to 5SY7232-6?

The 5SY3132-6 is a similar SENTRON 32 A B-curve 2-pole MCB, but it belongs to the 5SY3 series with different breaking capacity ratings. Verify the required fault level for your panel before substituting — the 5SY7232-6 carries 15 kA (EN 60898) and 25 kA (IEC 60947-2), which may exceed the 5SY3 series ratings.

What is the depth of 5SY7232-6?

The overall depth is 76 mm; installation depth is 70 mm.

What conductor sizes does 5SY7232-6 accept?

Solid and stranded conductors from 0.75 mm² up to 35 mm².

Will 5SY7232-6 drop into a panel specified around 5SY3132-6 without rewiring?

Both are 2-pole, 36 mm wide (2 width units), DIN-rail mount, with the same terminal range (0.75–35 mm² solid/stranded). Mechanical fit and wiring are identical — the difference is in breaking capacity ratings. Check that the 5SY7232-6's higher fault ratings (15/25 kA) are acceptable for your panel's coordination study.

What compliance documentation does Siemens provide for 5SY7232-6?

The part is rated per EN 60898 (15 kA) and IEC 60947-2 (25 kA). It carries overvoltage category III and energy limiting class 3. Halogen-free and silicon-free. Standard Siemens documentation includes CE declaration of conformity and RoHS/REACH compliance data — request these with your RFQ.
