Product details

It is designed for 220 V DC circuits and offers a 10 kA breaking capacity. This is a current-production part, still actively manufactured. The C-curve means it trips between 5 and 10 times rated current (2.5 to 5 A for this 0.5 A unit), suited for protecting circuits with moderate inrush, like lighting or small control transformers. The 10 kA DC breaking capacity gives it the interrupting capability for most low-voltage DC distribution panels.

DC ratings and deployment

Rated for 220 V DC maximum, this breaker is intended for DC branch circuit protection in residential or infrastructure applications. Touch protection is built in on the line side terminals.

For a panel originally specified with a different SENTRON 1-pole C-curve MCB (like the 5SL6120-7, which is an AC-rated unit with 72 V DC max), the 5SL5105-7RC will not drop in as a functional substitute for AC circuits — the DC-only rating limits its use. Verify the circuit voltage type before cross-referencing.

Frequently asked questions

What is 5SL5105-7RC's listed depth (76 mm) on this component line?

The total depth from DIN rail base to the front of the toggle is 76 mm. The installation depth (depth behind the panel face) is 70 mm.

What is 5SL5105-7RC's listed width (18 mm) on this component line?

Width is 18 mm, which corresponds to one modular unit (1 MW) on a standard DIN rail. This matches the footprint of most single-pole MCBs in a distribution board.

Will 5SL5105-7RC drop into a panel that was specified around 5SL6120-7 without rewiring?

Physically yes — same 18 mm width, 76 mm depth, and DIN-rail mounting. Electrically no: the 5SL6120-7 is an AC-rated breaker (250/440 V AC, 6 kA) with only 72 V DC capability, while the 5SL5105-7RC is a 220 V DC-only breaker. Do not substitute without verifying the circuit voltage type.
