Product details

That makes it a straight short-circuit protector for circuits where overload protection is handled upstream or by the load itself. For UL 1077 / CSA C22.2 No. 235 applications, the interrupting rating is 5 kA at 400 V AC, so verify your available fault current if the panel carries a UL/CSA sticker. On DC circuits, it is rated 72 V maximum, so it works in 48 V or 60 V DC control buses but not on a 110 V DC battery bank.

Two-pole (2P) design in a 36 mm wide housing — that is 2 modular width units on a DIN rail.

Rated for use in mechanical engineering and industrial environments per the manufacturer's suitability statement. The product function code per DIN EN 61346-2 is F (protective device).

Frequently asked questions

What is the breaking capacity of 5SY8263-8BB08?

20 kA per IEC 60947-2 at 400 V AC, and 5 kA per UL 1077 / CSA C22.2 No. 235 at 400 V AC.

What does the D tripping characteristic mean on this breaker?

The D-curve allows magnetic trip at 10–14× rated current (630–882 A for this 63 A breaker), so it is selected for loads with high inrush like motors, transformers, or capacitor banks.

Where can I buy 5SY8263-8BB08?

Sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time.

Will 5SY8263-8BB08 drop into a panel specified around 5SY7210-7CC?

Both are SENTRON 2-pole MCBs on a 36 mm footprint, so the mechanical fit is the same. The 5SY8263-8BB08 carries a higher 63 A rating and D-curve versus the 5SY7210-7CC's lower rating, so the electrical substitution depends on whether the circuit's load and fault current match.
