Product details

The 5SJ6116-7FC is a Siemens SENTRON miniature circuit breaker — 1-pole, 16 A rated current, C-curve trip characteristic, and a 6 kA breaking capacity certified to EN 60898. Single-pole design (1P) switches the line conductor only; neutral is not switched. Rated for 250 V AC single-phase or 400 V AC multi-phase operation. The 18 mm width (1 modular unit) snaps onto standard DIN rail — fits any 1-MW slot in a consumer unit or distribution board.

Temperature derating and service life

Rated 16 A at 30 °C ambient; at 40 °C the continuous current drops to 15.23 A, and at 45 °C to 14.88 A — a standard thermal derating curve that matters when the breaker shares a crowded enclosure with other heat sources.

Mounting and environment

Mounts in any position — vertical, horizontal, or inverted — on standard DIN rail. IP20 protection with connected conductors; suitable for dry indoor enclosures.

Frequently asked questions

What is the breaking capacity of 5SJ6116-7FC?

6 kA per EN 60898 at 400 V AC.

Will 5SJ6116-7FC drop into a panel specified around 5SY6013-7 without rewiring?

Yes — both are 1-MW (18 mm wide) SENTRON MCBs with the same 76 mm depth and 90 mm height, same DIN-rail mounting, same IP20 rating. The 5SJ6116-7FC is a 16 A C-curve; the 5SY6013-7 is a 13 A C-curve. Footprint and terminal layout are identical, so no rewiring needed for a swap at the same current rating.

Where can I buy 5SJ6116-7FC?
