Product details

The Siemens 5SJ6213-6 is a 2-pole miniature circuit breaker from the SENTRON 5SJ6 family, rated 13 A at 400 V AC with a B tripping characteristic. Two poles give you simultaneous disconnection of both phase conductors in a single-phase or split-phase circuit.

Snaps onto standard DIN rail. At 2 width units (roughly 36 mm) it consumes minimal rail space.

Electrical coordination

Insulation voltage rated 440 V AC, with multi-phase operation maximum also 440 V — so it's suited for 400 V three-phase systems with some headroom. Overvoltage category III means it's designed for fixed-installation distribution boards, not for equipment-level protection. DC rating is 60 V maximum, so it can also serve in DC sub-circuits like control power supplies or battery banks up to that voltage. Energy limiting class 3 provides good current limitation under short-circuit conditions, reducing let-through energy to downstream components.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy 5SJ6213-6?

This part is sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution channels. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time.

What is the difference between 5SJ6213-6 and 5SJ6216-6?

The 5SJ6216-6 is the same 2-pole B-curve 5SJ6 design but rated 16 A instead of 13 A. Both share the same 6 kA breaking capacity, 400 V rating, 70 mm depth, and physical footprint — so the 5SJ6216-6 drops into the same panel position without rewiring if the load current allows the higher rating.

What compliance documentation does Siemens provide for 5SJ6213-6?

The SENTRON 5SJ6 series carries approvals per EN 60898 and IEC 60947-2, which are the core standards for miniature circuit breakers in European and international installations. The halogen-free and silicon-free construction also supports cleanroom and low-outgassing requirements.

What is the maximum operating temperature for 5SJ6213-6?

Storage range is -40 °C to +75 °C; operating ambient is periodically up to +55 °C with 95% humidity.
