Product details

It is a 1-pole unit with a C-tripping characteristic, rated 3 A at 240 V AC, and delivers a 6 kA breaking capacity certified to both EN 60898 and IEC 60947-2.

For a 1-pole MCB on a 240 V line, that covers a 720 VA load (resistive) or roughly a 0.5 kW motor at typical power factor. For DC circuits, the breaker is rated 60 V maximum — suitable for 48 V DC control buses or solar combiner boxes, but not for higher-voltage DC strings. The 440 V insulation voltage and multi-phase operation rating up to 440 V AC confirm it can sit in a 3-phase panel as a single-pole branch breaker, provided the line-to-neutral voltage stays within 240 V. Vibration resistance tested to 50 m/s² at 25–150 Hz and 60 m/s² at 10–150 Hz per IEC 60068-2-6, so it holds up on machinery-mounted subpanels. Mechanical life is 20 000 switching cycles typical — adequate for a distribution breaker that sees infrequent manual operation; not intended for frequent switching duty like a contactor.

Panel integration

Mounting position is any orientation. Halogen-free and silicon-free construction — important for environments where outgassing from a fault could contaminate optics or sensitive electronics (clean rooms, semiconductor fabs, medical device manufacturing).

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy 5SJ6103-7 and get a price?

This part is sourced and quoted to order through independent distribution. Submit an RFQ for current availability and pricing — confirmed at quote time.

What is the breaking capacity of 5SJ6103-7?

6 kA rated breaking capacity per both EN 60898 and IEC 60947-2 at 240 V AC.

What is the temperature range for 5SJ6103-7?

Storage and operating temperature range is -40 °C to +75 °C, with periodic ambient up to +55 °C and 95% humidity.

Will 5SJ6103-7 drop into a panel specified around 5SJ6220-6 without rewiring?

No — 5SJ6220-6 is a 2-pole, 20 A, B-curve breaker occupying 2 width units, while 5SJ6103-7 is 1-pole, 3 A, C-curve in 1 width unit. The footprint, rating, and tripping characteristic differ; the panel would need rewiring and a different DIN-rail allocation.
