Product details

The 5SL6163-6 is a Siemens SENTRON miniature circuit breaker — 1-pole, B-curve, rated 63 A at 30 °C, with a 6 kA breaking capacity per EN 60898 and IEC 60947-2. At 40 °C ambient the continuous current derates to 59.18 A; at 55 °C it drops to 52.93 A, so if the breaker lives in a crowded enclosure or near heat sources, size up or check the thermal curve. The 18 mm width (1 MW) fits a standard DIN-rail cutout; the 76 mm depth leaves room for cable bending behind the gland plate.

IP20 with connected conductors — fine for a closed panel, not for washdown. The sealable design (padlockable toggle) allows lockout/tagout without an accessory. Supplementary devices (auxiliary contacts, shunt trip, under-voltage release) can be snapped on the right side.

Frequently asked questions

How do I get current pricing and availability for 5SL6163-6?

Submit an RFQ through this listing. Pricing and stock are confirmed at quote time through independent distribution channels.

Will 5SL6163-6 drop into a panel that was specified around 5SL4363-7 without rewiring?

Both are 1-pole, 18 mm wide SENTRON MCBs on the same DIN-rail footprint, so the mechanical fit is identical. The difference is the tripping curve: 5SL6163-6 is B-curve (3–5× In), while 5SL4363-7 is a different characteristic — verify the required curve for the circuit before swapping.

What compliance documentation does this brand provide for 5SL6163-6?

The part carries ratings per EN 60898 and IEC 60947-2 (6 kA breaking capacity). The halogen-free and silicon-free declaration is on the spec sheet. For RoHS/REACH declarations, the manufacturer provides them on request through the standard documentation portal.
