Product details

The 5SL3106-6MB: The B-curve trips between 3 and 5 times rated current (18–30 A magnetic), so it's sized for resistive and general-purpose loads where inrush isn't heavy — lighting circuits, small control transformers, office wiring. The 4.5 kA breaking capacity at 400 V AC covers most residential and light commercial fault levels; if your panel's prospective short-circuit current is higher, step up to a 6 kA or 10 kA frame. The 6 A rating at 30 °C ambient is the continuous current you design to; derate if the enclosure runs hotter.

IP20 with conductors connected, so it's for enclosed panels only, not washdown areas. Mounting position any, which helps when you're squeezing breakers into a tight gland-plate layout. The sealable design lets you lock the toggle position after commissioning.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy 5SL3106-6MB and how do I get a price?

The 5SL3106-6MB is sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time — submit an RFQ for a firm price and lead time.

Will 5SL3106-6MB drop into a panel that was specified around 5SL3116-6MB without rewiring?

Yes — both are 1-pole, 18 mm wide, B-curve MCBs on the same DIN-rail footprint. The only difference is the 6 A vs 16 A rating. If the panel busbar and wiring are sized for 16 A, dropping in a 6 A breaker is electrically safe but will trip on a 16 A load; you'd need to re-evaluate the circuit load.

What compliance documentation does this brand provide for 5SL3106-6MB (RoHS, REACH, UL, IEC)?

Siemens provides RoHS and REACH declarations for the SENTRON series, plus IEC/EN 60898 certification. The part is not UL-listed (it's an IEC design). Documentation is available from the manufacturer on request.
