Product details

The SENTRON 5SM9642-0KK is a 4-pole residual current unit rated 40 A at 400 V AC, with a 300 mA trip threshold and Type AC waveform detection. The 300 mA sensitivity is for equipment protection or fire prevention, not personnel protection. The instantaneous design trips as soon as residual current exceeds 300 mA. The 50 Hz supply frequency is fixed.

Snap-on DIN rail mounting, standard for SENTRON modular devices. The 4-pole width occupies the same footprint as a 4-pole MCB, fitting existing distribution boards.

Frequently asked questions

What is the closest functional second-source for 5SM9642-0KK?

None of the peer parts (5SL4363-7, 5SL6016-7KL, 5SY4140-7) are direct functional equivalents — they are miniature circuit breakers, not RC units. The 5SM9642-0KK is a residual current device; a second-source would need to be another 4-pole, 40 A, 300 mA, Type AC RCD from a different manufacturer, not an MCB.

Will 5SM9642-0KK drop into a panel specified around 5SL4363-7 without rewiring?

No — the 5SL4363-7 is a 3-pole miniature circuit breaker, not a 4-pole RC unit. The 5SM9642-0KK has a different function (residual current protection vs. overcurrent protection) and a different pole count, so it cannot be swapped without rewiring and re-coordinating the protection scheme.
