Product details

What this MCB covers

Rated 415 VAC multi-phase (440 VAC max) and 250 VAC single-phase, with a 72 VDC maximum for DC-side applications. The 7.5 kA breaking capacity per EN 60898 is the standard you spec for a residential or light-commercial panelboard — adequate for most utility-transformer fault currents, but not the 10 kA or 25 kA you'd need closer to a large substation. IP20 with conductors connected — expected for a panelboard device, not for wet locations.

The 4-MWU footprint (72 mm) occupies four 18 mm module positions — plan your rail fill accordingly. Sealable (padlockable) handle for lockout/tagout.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy 5SL6440-7RC and get current pricing?

Sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time — submit an RFQ for a firm commercial offer.

Will 5SL6440-7RC drop into a panel specified around 5SL4363-7 without rewiring?

No — the 5SL4363-7 is a 3-pole, 63 A MCB on a 3-MWU (54 mm) footprint, while the 5SL6440-7RC is a 4-pole, 40 A MCB on a 4-MWU (72 mm) footprint. The pole count, current rating, and width differ; a panel designed for the 3-pole unit would need busbar and rail rework to accept the 4-pole.

What compliance documentation does Siemens provide for 5SL6440-7RC?

The MCB carries a CE marking per the Low Voltage Directive and is designed to EN 60898-1. It is halogen-free and silicon-free. For specific declarations (RoHS, REACH, UL file) request the manufacturer's compliance package with your RFQ.
