SENTRON 5SY7510-8 — D-curve MCB, 2-pole, 10 A
The Siemens 5SY7510-8 is a 2-pole (1P+N) miniature circuit breaker from the SENTRON family, rated 10 A with a D tripping characteristic. Breaking capacity is 15 kA per EN 60898 for general distribution and 30 kA per IEC 60947-2 for industrial panel duty, so it handles high-fault conditions without cascading upstream. At 40 °C ambient the continuous rating derates to 9.39 A; at 50 °C it drops to 8.74 A. If the panel runs warm — common in a crowded enclosure — factor the thermal curve into the load calculation. The 2-module width (36 mm) and 76 mm depth fit standard DIN-rail enclosures; mounting position is any, which simplifies layout in tight cabinets.
