Product details

The Siemens SENTRON 5SL6440-7MB is a 4-pole miniature circuit breaker (MCB) with a C tripping characteristic, rated 40 A and a breaking capacity of 6 kA per EN 60898 at 400 V AC.

Four poles in a single 72 mm wide housing (4 modular width units) — that is 4 x 18 mm per pole, the standard DIN-rail pitch. The sealable design allows panel builders to lock the toggle position after commissioning.

Sourcing and BOM fit

For a panel originally specified around the 3-pole 5SL4363-7, note the width difference: the 4-pole variant takes 72 mm (4 MW) versus 54 mm (3 MW) for the 3-pole, so a DIN-rail section that had room for a 3-pole plus a spare module may need a wider rail or a different layout. The 5SL4363-7 also carries a 10 kA breaking capacity per EN 60898, so if the fault level at the board exceeds 6 kA, the 5SL4363-7 is the correct choice.

Frequently asked questions

What is the breaking capacity of 5SL6440-7MB?

6 kA per EN 60898 at 400 V AC. This is the standard breaking capacity for the SENTRON 5SL6 series in this pole/current combination.

Will 5SL6440-7MB drop into a panel built for 5SL4363-7?

Not without a DIN-rail change. The 5SL6440-7MB is 4-pole, 72 mm wide (4 MW), while the 5SL4363-7 is 3-pole, 54 mm wide (3 MW). The depth and height are identical at 76 mm and 90 mm, so the panel depth is compatible, but the rail width needs to accommodate the extra 18 mm.
