What is the function of this part?

The 5SY4101-8 is a Miniature Circuit Breaker (MCB) designed to protect an electrical circuit from damage caused by excess current, typically resulting from an overload or short circuit. Its basic function is to interrupt current flow after a fault is detected.

What are the key specifications of this part?

This MCB has a toggle actuator and operates at a voltage of 400V. It has a current rating of 1A and dimensions of 17.6 x 70.2 x 89.8 mm.

What is the tripping characteristic of this part?

The 5SY4101-8 has a 'D' tripping characteristic. This means it is designed to trip or break the circuit when the current is 10 to 20 times its rated current. This makes it suitable for circuits with inductive loads where there may be a high inrush current, such as transformers or motors.

What is the mounting type of this part?

This part is designed for quick assembly system mounting, which allows for easy installation and removal.

What is the breaking capacity of this part?

The 5SY4101-8 has a breaking capacity of 10kA according to EN 60898. This is the maximum current that the MCB can safely interrupt without causing an electric arc that the MCB cannot extinguish.

What is the operating temperature range of this part?

The operating temperature range for this part is not specified in the available data. However, most MCBs are designed to operate within a wide temperature range suitable for industrial environments.

Can this part be used in residential applications?

Yes, the 5SY4101-8 can be used in residential applications. However, its 'D' tripping characteristic makes it more suitable for circuits with inductive loads, such as those found in industrial applications.

What is the country of origin of this part?

The country of origin for this part is not specified in the available data.

What is the commodity code of this part?

The commodity code for this part is 853620. This is the code used in international trade for classifying this type of product.
