Siemens SENTRON 5SY4 installatieautomaat 20A 1-polig C 6kA

The Siemens SENTRON 5SY4 series miniature circuit breaker (MCB) is a high-performance protective device designed for reliable overcurrent and short-circuit protection in electrical installations. With a rated current of 20 A and a tripping characteristic of C, this 1-pole breaker ensures safe operation for a wide range of applications. Compliant with IEC/EN 60898, it offers a rated switching capacity of 6 kA, making it suitable for residential, commercial, and industrial environments.

Advantages

This MCB provides thermal-magnetic protection, combining a bimetallic strip for overload protection and an electromagnetic coil for short-circuit protection. Its compact design allows for easy installation on DIN rails, saving space in distribution boards. The screw terminals accommodate conductors from 0.75 to 35 mm², ensuring secure connections. With a mechanical and electrical service life of 10,000 switching cycles, it guarantees long-term reliability.
