Product details

The Siemens 5SL6340-7 is a SENTRON miniature circuit breaker (MCB) rated 40 A, C-curve, 3-pole, with a 6 kA breaking capacity per both EN 60898 and IEC 60947-2. It operates on 400 V AC at 50/60 Hz and occupies 3 modular width units (54 mm) on a DIN rail.

Breaking capacity and voltage rating

Rated 6 kA under both EN 60898 and IEC 60947-2, this MCB safely interrupts fault currents up to 6 kA at 400 V AC. The multi-phase maximum operating voltage is 440 V AC, giving headroom for nominal 400 V three-phase systems. For DC applications, the maximum rated voltage is 72 V — suitable for control circuits but not for high-voltage DC bus protection.

Snap-on DIN rail mounting, any position. Dimensions: 90 mm height, 54 mm width (3 x 18 mm modular units), 76 mm depth, with 70 mm installation depth. Sealable (padlockable) handle for lockout/tagout compliance.

Halogen-free and silicon-free construction. Mechanical service life 10,000 operating cycles typical.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy 5SL6340-7?

The 5SL6340-7 is sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution channels. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time.

What is the closest functional alternative to 5SL6340-7?

The 5SL4363-7 is the closest functional peer — same 3-pole, C-curve, 40 A rating, same physical footprint (90 x 54 x 76 mm), same DIN-rail mounting. The key difference: 5SL4363-7 carries a 10 kA breaking capacity (vs. 6 kA on the 5SL6340-7) and dissipates 5 W per pole (vs. 3.3 W). If your panel requires 10 kA SCCR, the 5SL4363-7 is the direct upgrade; otherwise the 5SL6340-7 drops into the same panel without rewiring.

Will 5SL6340-7 drop into a panel specified around 5SL4363-7?

Yes, identical dimensions (90 x 54 x 76 mm), same 3-pole DIN-rail footprint, same 70 mm installation depth. No rewiring or panel modification needed. The only trade-off is the lower 6 kA breaking capacity — verify your available fault current before substituting.

What is the depth of 5SL6340-7?

76 mm overall depth, with 70 mm installation depth behind the panel face.

What compliance documentation is available for 5SL6340-7?

The MCB carries IEC/EN 60898 and IEC 60947-2 ratings. It is halogen-free and silicon-free. Standard documentation includes the manufacturer's declaration of conformity; specific RoHS/REACH/UL declarations should be requested at quote time as they are not listed in the base specification.
