The Siemens 5SL6213-7RC is a SENTRON miniature circuit breaker rated 13 A, 2-pole, with a C tripping characteristic and a 7.5 kA breaking capacity per EN 60898 at 415 V AC. Rated supply voltage is 415 V AC for multi-phase operation, with a maximum of 440 V AC. Single-phase operation is rated at 250 V AC. DC operation is supported up to 72 V. The breaker occupies 2 modular width units (36 mm) on a DIN rail, with a 76 mm depth and 90 mm height — standard SENTRON 5SL series footprint.
For industrial panels with higher fault levels, a current-limiting upstream MCCB or fuse would be needed for full selectivity.
Active production and sourcing
Halogen-free and silicon-free construction reduces toxic gas emission in fire scenarios and avoids silicone outgassing that can contaminate sensitive contacts in adjacent equipment — relevant for installations in public buildings, data centers, or medical facilities.
