Product details

Siemens SENTRON 5SL6116-7YA — 1-pole C-curve MCB, 16 A, 6 kA

The 6 kA breaking capacity per EN 60898 certifies it can safely interrupt a 6 kA prospective short-circuit fault at 230/400 V — the standard for most residential and light commercial distribution boards. At 40 °C ambient, the continuous current rating derates to 0.96 A; at 45 °C it holds 14.88 A, so the 16 A frame is usable in a 40 °C panel only if the load stays well below the derated figure.

Snap-on DIN rail mount, any position. Depth 76 mm, width 18 mm (1 MW), height 90 mm. Installation depth 70 mm. IP20 with distribution board cover — the cover is required for finger-safe operation. Sealable terminals allow lockout/tagout. Halogen-free and silicon-free construction.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy 5SL6116-7YA and how do I get a price?

The 5SL6116-7YA is sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time.

Will 5SL6116-7YA drop into a panel that was specified around 5SL4106-7CC without rewiring?

Yes — both share the same 18 mm width, 76 mm depth, 90 mm height, DIN-rail mounting, and 1-pole C-curve form factor. The 5SL6116-7YA carries a 16 A rating versus the 5SL4106-7CC's 6 A, and a 6 kA versus 10 kA breaking capacity per EN 60898. The physical swap is a direct fit; the lower breaking capacity must be verified against the available fault current at the panel.

What is 5SL6116-7YA's listed depth (76 mm) on this component line?

The depth is 76 mm, with an installation depth of 70 mm.

What is 5SL6116-7YA's listed width (18 mm) on this component line?

The width is 18 mm, which corresponds to 1 modular width unit.
