Product details

The Siemens 5SL6010-7KL is a SENTRON miniature circuit breaker in a compact 1-module-width (18 mm) package, rated 10 A at 30 °C with a C tripping characteristic and a 6 kA breaking capacity per IEC/EN60898-1.

The C-curve (tripping characteristic C) means the magnetic trip fires at 5 to 10 times rated current — 50 to 100 A for this 10 A unit — so it handles moderate inrush from small motors, transformers, or capacitive loads without nuisance tripping, while still clearing a hard short fast. If your fault level exceeds 6 kA, you need a higher-rated breaker upstream or a current-limiting device. Thermal derating is published: 10 A at 30 °C, 9.52 A at 40 °C, 9.27 A at 45 °C, 9.01 A at 50 °C, 8.75 A at 55 °C, and 8.48 A at 60 °C. Pollution degree 2 (normal, non-conductive pollution) and overvoltage category III (distribution-level transients) are standard for fixed-installation MCBs. The IP20 rating applies only with connected conductors — treat the terminals as finger-safe but not sealed against dust ingress when wiring.

Panel integration

Snap-on mounting to standard DIN rail (35 mm), any position. The top and bottom terminals are not combined — each pole terminates independently.

Frequently asked questions

What is the 5SL6010-7KL used for?

It is a miniature circuit breaker for single-phase final subcircuits in residential buildings and infrastructure, providing overcurrent and short-circuit protection with neutral switching. The C characteristic suits moderate inrush loads like small motors, lighting banks, and capacitor banks.

Will the 5SL6010-7KL drop into a panel specified for the 5SL6120-7?

Mechanically yes — both are 1-module-width (18 mm) SENTRON breakers on standard DIN rail. The difference is rating: the 5SL6120-7 is a 20 A C-curve. If your panel was designed for 20 A branch circuits, dropping in a 10 A breaker will trip on the existing load. No wiring change needed, but the load must be within 10 A derated for ambient.

What compliance documentation does Siemens provide for the 5SL6010-7KL?

The breaker is designed to IEC/EN60898-1 and GB/T10963.1. It is halogen-free and silicon-free. For specific declarations (CE, UKCA, RoHS, REACH), the manufacturer's declaration is typically available per batch — confirm at order time if your project requires a specific document package.

Where can I buy the 5SL6010-7KL and how is it quoted?

It is sourced through independent distribution and quoted to order against an RFQ. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time — no stock count or price is published here. Submit an RFQ for your required quantity and target delivery window.
