Product details

The Siemens SENTRON 5SN6316-8CN is a 3-pole miniature circuit breaker with a D tripping characteristic, rated 16 A at 400 V AC and a breaking capacity of 6 kA per EN 60898.

At 30 °C ambient the breaker carries the full 16 A; at 40 °C it derates to 15.28 A, at 45 °C to 14.91 A, at 50 °C to 14.53 A, and at 55 °C to 14.14 A. The DC rating tops out at 72 V, so it's not a candidate for 125 VDC battery banks.

Mounting and environment

Any mounting position is allowed.
