Product details

The Siemens 5SJ6106-7RC is a SENTRON miniature circuit breaker — a 1-pole, 6 A, C-curve unit rated for 6 kA breaking capacity per EN 60898 at 240 V AC. It's sized for retail-line distribution panels where overcurrent protection is needed on lighting, socket, or light commercial circuits.

If your service entrance has higher available fault current, step up to the 15 kA-rated 5SY series. Rated for 240 V AC single-phase and 440 V AC multi-phase operation, with a maximum DC rating of 72 V. Mechanical life is 10,000 switching cycles, typical for this class.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy 5SJ6106-7RC and how do I get a price?

The 5SJ6106-7RC is sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time.

Will 5SJ6106-7RC drop into a panel specified around 5SY4116-7CV?

Yes, the 5SJ6106-7RC shares the same 18 mm width, 76 mm depth, and 90 mm height as the 5SY4116-7CV, so it fits the same DIN-rail footprint and enclosure cutout. The key difference is breaking capacity: 6 kA per EN 60898 on this part versus 15 kA per IEC 60947-2 on the 5SY. If the panel's fault current is under 6 kA, it's a drop-in swap without rewiring.

What compliance documentation does Siemens provide for this MCB?

The 5SJ6106-7RC is halogen-free and silicon-free, and carries a degree of pollution 2 rating per IEC. Standard Siemens documentation includes the CE declaration and conformity to EN 60898. Specific RoHS/REACH statements are available from the manufacturer on request.
