Product details

The Siemens SENTRON 5SY7263-6 is a 2-pole miniature circuit breaker rated 63 A at 35 °C with a B-curve trip characteristic — meaning it trips between 3 and 5 times rated current, suited for resistive and general-purpose loads where short inrush isn't expected. That's the number that governs coordination with the upstream protective device. The 63 A rating is at 35 °C ambient. At 40 °C it derates to 59.16 A, at 50 °C to 55.06 A, and at 60 °C to 50.65 A. That's the real continuous current the breaker will carry without nuisance tripping.

Mounting position any — vertical, horizontal, upside-down, doesn't matter for the trip mechanism. The 76 mm depth is standard for the SENTRON 5SY series — no surprise when you're laying out the DIN rail.

Frequently asked questions

What is the breaking capacity of 5SY7263-6?

15 kA per EN 60898 and 20 kA per IEC 60947-2. The higher IEC figure is the one to use for coordination studies under the standard that governs industrial panels.

Will 5SY7263-6 drop into a panel specified for 5SY7210-7CC?

Both are 2-pole SENTRON MCBs on the same DIN-rail footprint, same 36 mm width, same depth. The difference is the rating — 63 A B-curve here versus the 10 A B-curve on the 5SY7210-7CC. If the panel bus and wiring are sized for 63 A, it fits without rewiring. If the panel was built for 10 A branch circuits, the 63 A breaker is oversized for the downstream conductors.

Where can I buy 5SY7263-6 and how is it quoted?

Sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent industrial distribution. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time — no stock count or price is published here.
