Product details

The Siemens 5SN6216-7CP is a 2-pole miniature circuit breaker from the SENTRON 5SN series, rated for 400 V AC at 50 Hz.

The closest functional peer is the 5SY7206-7CC. The 5SY7206-7CC steps up to a 30 kA breaking capacity under IEC 60947-2 (double the 5SN's 15 kA) and adds UL 1077 / CSA C22.2 No. 235 listing at 5 kA. If your panel's prospective fault current sits above 15 kA, the 5SY7206-7CC is the safer drop-in — same footprint, no rewiring. If the 15 kA ceiling covers your fault study, the 5SN6216-7CP meets it where it is.

Solid conductors up to 35 mm² terminate directly — no need for pin ferrules on the line side for typical feeder runs.

Power loss per pole at rated current is 1.6 W; for a 2-pole unit that's 3.2 W total, negligible for thermal budget in a ventilated panel.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy 5SN6216-7CP and how do I get a price?

The 5SN6216-7CP is sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time.

What is the closest second-source to 5SN6216-7CP — 5SY7206-7CC?

The 5SY7206-7CC is the closest functional peer, sharing the same 2-pole, 2-module-width footprint and 76 mm depth. It offers a higher 30 kA breaking capacity under IEC 60947-2 and UL 1077 listing, so it drops into the same panel without rewiring if fault levels exceed 15 kA.

Will 5SN6216-7CP drop into a panel specified around 5SY7206-7CC?

Yes. Both breakers share the same 76 mm depth, 70 mm installation depth, 36 mm width, and DIN-rail mounting, so the 5SN6216-7CP fits the same panel footprint without rewiring or gland-plate changes.

What are the key ratings of 5SN6216-7CP?

2-pole, 400 V AC at 50 Hz, 6 kA per EN 60898, 15 kA per IEC 60947-2, 72 V DC maximum, operating temperature -40 °C to 75 °C, mechanical life 10 000 cycles.
