Product details

Siemens 5SL3120-7MB SENTRON MCB — 20 A, C-curve, 1-pole

It breaks fault currents up to 4.5 kA per EN 60898 at 230/400 V AC, which covers the standard residential and light commercial fault-current duty in most European and Asian installations.

The C-curve means the magnetic trip fires at 5 to 10 times rated current — 100 A to 200 A for this 20 A breaker. That suits loads with moderate inrush, such as lighting banks, small transformers, or resistive heaters. The IP20 protection with connected conductors means the terminals are finger-safe only when wired; the breaker itself is not sealed against moisture or dust ingress.

The 18 mm width (one modular unit) and 70 mm installation depth mean it fits standard distribution boards and sub-distribution panels without projecting beyond the enclosure depth.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy the 5SL3120-7MB?

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

What is the breaking capacity of the 5SL3120-7MB?

The breaking capacity is 4.5 kA according to EN 60898 at 230/400 V AC. This is the maximum prospective fault current the breaker can safely interrupt under standard test conditions.

What is the width of the 5SL3120-7MB?

The width is 18 mm, which is one modular unit on a 35 mm DIN rail. The depth is 76 mm and the height is 90 mm.

Will the 5SL3120-7MB drop into a panel specified for the 5SL4363-7?

No, the 5SL4363-7 is a 3-pole breaker occupying three modular widths (54 mm), while the 5SL3120-7MB is a 1-pole breaker at 18 mm. The physical footprint and wiring arrangement are different; the panel would need rewiring and a different DIN-rail layout.
