Siemens SENTRON 5SL6213-7CC — 2-pole C-curve MCB at 13 A
The Siemens SENTRON 5SL6213-7CC is a 2-pole miniature circuit breaker with C-curve tripping characteristic, rated 13 A at 400 V AC and 6 kA breaking capacity per EN 60898. It occupies 2 modular width units (36 mm) on a DIN rail, with an installation depth of 70 mm and overall depth of 76 mm. The 6 kA breaking capacity at 400 V AC is sufficient for most residential and light commercial distribution boards; for higher fault-current environments you'd step up to a 10 kA or 15 kA rated breaker.
At 40 °C it derates to 12.26 A, at 45 °C to 11.87 A, at 50 °C to 11.47 A, and at 55 °C to 11.06 A. Vibration resistance is 50 m/s² from 25 to 150 Hz per IEC 60068-2-6, so it holds up on machinery panels subject to moderate vibration.
At 36 mm wide (2 modular units), it snaps onto standard 35 mm DIN rail.
Environmental and material compliance
Halogen-free and silicon-free construction, so it won't outgas corrosive compounds in a sealed panel — relevant for sensitive electronics or food-processing environments.
