5SY4140-6 Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The Siemens 5SY4140-6 is a single-pole miniature circuit breaker designed for reliable overcurrent protection in industrial and mechanical engineering applications. It offers a rated operational current of 40A at AC and a switching capacity of 10kA according to EN 60898.

 

This circuit breaker operates with a Type B tripping characteristic, suitable for protecting circuits with low inrush currents. It has a rated insulation voltage (Ui) of 440V AC and a maximum DC operating voltage of 72V. The device is designed for DIN rail mounting and features a quick assembly system for ease of installation.

 

Key technical specifications include a mechanical service life of 10,000 switching cycles, an IP20 protection class with connected conductors, and a power loss of 3.6W per pole at rated current and AC. The connectable conductor cross-section ranges from 0.75 mm² to 35 mm² for solid and stranded conductors.

 

Compliance includes standards like IEC/EN 60898-1 and IEC/EN 60947-2. The breaker is halogen-free and silicon-free, contributing to environmental safety. It also supports sealability and properties for main switches in accordance with EN 60204-1.
