Product details

The Siemens 5SJ4106-8HG42 is a 1-pole miniature circuit breaker from the SENTRON 5SJ4 series, rated 6 A at 30 °C with a D tripping characteristic — built to handle high inrush currents from motor, transformer, or lighting loads without nuisance trips on startup.

The D-curve (tripping characteristic class D) means the magnetic trip triggers at 10–20× the rated current — so for a 6 A breaker, instantaneous trip happens between 60 A and 120 A. That's the right curve for loads like small motors, solenoid valves, or switch-mode power supplies where the inrush peak would otherwise pop a B or C curve. At 30 °C and 40 °C the full 6 A rating holds; above that it derates linearly to 5.4 A at 60 °C (–). The 60 V DC maximum rating covers control-circuit DC rails, though the primary application is AC branch-circuit protection. IP20 with connected conductors (IP40 in the handle area) is standard for enclosed distribution boards — no special sealing gaskets needed inside a cabinet.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy 5SJ4106-8HG42 and get current pricing?

This part is sourced to order against an RFQ through independent distribution. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time — no stock count or price is listed here.

What is the tripping characteristic of 5SJ4106-8HG42?

It has a D tripping characteristic (class D), meaning the magnetic trip operates at 10–20× rated current — suitable for high-inrush loads like motors and transformers.

What is the rated current of 5SJ4106-8HG42?

Rated 6 A at 30 °C and 40 °C, derating to 5.4 A at 60 °C. The DC rating is 60 V maximum.

What compliance documentation does Siemens provide for 5SJ4106-8HG42?

The product is designed to EN 61346-2 and IEC 81346-2 (function code F), halogen-free, silicon-free, with pollution degree 3 and overvoltage category 3 — typical for industrial MCBs. Specific RoHS/REACH/UL declarations are available from Siemens upon request.
