Product details

It protects circuits against overload and short-circuit, and is rated for breaking capacities of 50 kA at 400 V AC per IEC 60947-2 and 5 kA per UL 1077.

Rated operational voltage is 400 V AC (multi-phase or single-phase up to 440 V), and 60 V DC (max 72 V). The DC rating of 15 kA per IEC 60947-2 covers battery-backed or rectifier-fed circuits. The 5 kA UL 1077 rating is for supplementary protection in North American panels; it is not a branch-circuit rated breaker under UL 489.

Mounting position is any orientation.

Frequently asked questions

What is the breaking capacity of 5SY8206-8?

It is rated 50 kA at 400 V AC per IEC 60947-2, 15 kA at DC per IEC 60947-2, and 5 kA per UL 1077.

What does the D-curve mean for this breaker?

The D tripping characteristic allows higher inrush currents (typically 10–20x rated current) before tripping, making it suitable for motor, transformer, and welding loads that draw a heavy start-up surge.

Where can I buy 5SY8206-8 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.

What compliance documentation is available for 5SY8206-8?

The breaker is certified to IEC / EN 60947-2 and UL 1077. It is halogen-free and silicon-free. The SENTRON series typically provides RoHS and REACH declarations on request.
