Product details

The Siemens 5SL6106-7RC is a SENTRON miniature circuit breaker (MCB) rated 6 A with a C tripping characteristic and a 7.5 kA breaking capacity according to EN 60898.

The C characteristic means the magnetic trip fires at 5 to 10 times rated current — 30 to 60 A for this 6 A unit — so it handles moderate inrush from small motor loads or capacitive circuits without nuisance tripping, while still clearing hard faults fast. Single-pole construction (1P) switches the line conductor only. Rated for single-phase operation at 250 V AC and multi-phase at 440 V AC, so it fits a 230/400 V distribution board as a branch-circuit protector.

Snaps onto a standard 35 mm DIN rail; 18 mm width (1 MW) means you can pack 12 of these per 216 mm of rail.

Frequently asked questions

What is the breaking capacity of 5SL6106-7RC?

7.5 kA according to EN 60898 at 415 V AC.

Will 5SL6106-7RC drop into a panel specified around the 3-pole 5SL4363-7?

Not without rewiring. The 5SL6106-7RC is a single-pole breaker (18 mm wide), while the 5SL4363-7 is a 3-pole unit (54 mm wide). Both share the same 76 mm depth and 90 mm height, so the DIN-rail mounting footprint is compatible, but the pole count and width are different.

Where can I buy 5SL6106-7RC?

Sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time.
