At 30 °C ambient the breaker carries the full 16 A; at 40 °C it derates to 15.28 A, at 50 °C to 14.53 A, and at 55 °C to 14.14 A. If the panel runs warm — say a crowded enclosure near a transformer — use the 40 °C figure for the BOM line. The breaker occupies 4 modular width units (72 mm wide, 90 mm high, 76 mm deep with 70 mm installation depth) and snaps onto standard DIN rail.

Frequently asked questions
What is the breaking capacity of 5SL6616-7CC?
The breaking capacity is 6 kA per EN 60898 at 400 V AC. That rating is tested and certified under the standard for miniature circuit breakers in residential and infrastructure panels.
What is the difference between 5SL6616-7CC and 5SL3116-6MB?
The 5SL6616-7CC is a 3P+N (4-pole) breaker with neutral switching, while the 5SL3116-6MB is a single-pole unit. The 5SL6616-7CC will not drop into a panel wired for a single-pole breaker without rewiring the busbar and neutral connection. They share the same SENTRON family and C characteristic, but the pole count and neutral switching are different.
Where can I buy 5SL6616-7CC?
