Product details

Siemens 5SY7606-7 SENTRON MCB — 4-pole C-curve, dual-rated breaking capacity

It carries dual breaking capacity ratings: 15 kA per IEC/EN 60898-1 and 40 kA per IEC 60947-2 at 400 V AC, plus 15 kA at 60 V DC per IEC 60947-2 and 5 kA per UL 1077 / CSA C22.2 No.235. The neutral pole is switched (3P+N), so you get full isolation on all live conductors. Suitable for mechanical engineering and industry environments. Halogen-free and silicon-free construction. Sealable — useful if you need to lock out settings after commissioning.

Integration — panel fit and thermal derating

The 4-MW width (72 mm) and 70 mm installation depth mean it drops into the same footprint as other SENTRON 4-pole breakers — no re-drilling or gland-plate changes if you're swapping from a different 4-pole MCB in the same family. Temperature derating is specified: max 95% RH at 55 °C, dropping to 55% at 70 °C and 35% at 75 °C. In a sealed panel with multiple breakers side by side, factor in the internal temperature rise — the 75 °C ceiling is the absolute limit, not a continuous rating.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy 5SY7606-7 and how do I get a price?

The 5SY7606-7 is available to order through independent distribution. Submit an RFQ — availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time.

What is the difference between 5SY7606-7 and 5SY4140-7?

Both are 4-pole SENTRON MCBs with the same physical footprint and C-curve. The 5SY7606-7 carries higher breaking capacity ratings (15 kA EN 60898 / 40 kA IEC 60947-2 versus the 5SY4140-7's lower ratings), so the choice comes down to the fault current level your panel must withstand. If your SCCR study calls for the higher 40 kA figure, the 5SY7606-7 is the one; if the lower rating suffices, the 5SY4140-7 is a cost-effective drop-in.

Will 5SY7606-7 drop into a panel specified around 5SY4140-7 without rewiring?

Yes — both are 4-pole (3P+N) SENTRON MCBs with the same 72 mm width (4 MW) and DIN-rail mounting. The wiring terminals and neutral switching are identical. No re-drilling or gland-plate changes needed.

What compliance documentation does Siemens provide for 5SY7606-7?

The breaker is certified to IEC/EN 60898-1, IEC/EN 60947-2, and UL 1077 / CSA C22.2 No.235. It is halogen-free and silicon-free. Standard compliance documentation (CE, UKCA, RoHS, REACH) is available from Siemens.
