Product details

What this MCB is and what the ratings mean for fit

The 5SL6620-7: The 4-pole, 4-module-width (72 mm) footprint snaps onto standard DIN rail and fits any mounting position. Depth is 76 mm, installation depth 70 mm — the extra 6 mm is the handle throw, so allow clearance in the enclosure door. Rated for overvoltage category III and pollution degree 2, which is the standard for fixed-installation distribution boards. IP20 with connected conductors means it's protected against finger contact but not against moisture — keep it inside a rated enclosure in wet locations.

Panel integration and compliance notes

Sealable design allows the installer to lock the handle in the OFF position with a padlock — useful for lockout/tagout on a final subcircuit without pulling the main disconnect. Halogen-free and silicon-free construction matters if the breaker lives in a clean room or a zone where outgassing during a fault could contaminate optics or electronics. Touch protection is built in; no separate finger-duct shield needed on the line side. Mechanical service life is 10 000 switching cycles typical — fine for branch-circuit protection where the breaker operates a few times a year, not for frequent switching duty (use a contactor for that).

Frequently asked questions

What is the closest functional second-source to the 5SL6620-7?

The 5SL3340-7CC is the closest sibling: same poles (4), same C curve, same 6 kA breaking capacity. The difference is 3P+N (switched neutral, no protection) vs 4P (all poles protected). Choose based on whether your neutral needs overcurrent protection.

What is the depth and width of the 5SL6620-7?

Depth is 76 mm, width is 72 mm, which corresponds to 4 modular width units. Installation depth is 70 mm.

Will the 5SL6620-7 drop into a panel specified around the 5SL3340-7CC without rewiring?

Yes, both are 4-pole, 4-module-width (72 mm) DIN-rail devices with the same 6 kA breaking capacity and C curve. The only wiring difference: the 5SL6620-7 switches the neutral but does not protect it, so if the original design used the neutral as a protected pole, you must verify the neutral conductor is sized for fault current — otherwise the swap is mechanical and electrical drop-in.
