Per the datasheet, it interrupts fault currents up to 3 kA AC per IEC 60934 and also carries a UL1077 listing, so it's accepted in both IEC and North American panel builds. The F1 curve is a fast-acting characteristic with a defined short-circuit let-through, intended for semiconductor or sensitive load protection where standard B/C curves would pass too much energy before tripping. Snaps onto DIN rail per, occupies a single modular width unit (18 mm wide per). Mounts horizontally or vertically. IP20 finger-safe terminals; this is an enclosed-panel part, not for washdown environments. ## Electrical ratings and operating conditions Rated AC operating voltage is 230 V, with a maximum of 250 V in single-phase operation. DC side is rated 60 V, maximum 72 V. Supply frequency is 50/60 Hz. Ambient temperature range is -40 °C to +70 °C, with derating per the influence curve: 30 °C at 85% relative humidity, 60 °C at 20% rF.","metaTitle":"Siemens 5SY1716-2 SENTRON Device Protection Switch, 1P+AS, 1","metaDescription":"Siemens 5SY1716-2 SENTRON device protection switch, 1-pole with auxiliary switch NO contact, 16A, characteristic F1, 230V AC / 60V DC.
