Product details

What this RCBO does on the rail

It combines a 32 A thermal-magnetic trip (C-curve, so it holds 5–10× In for motor inrush and lighting ballast starts) with a 30 mA residual-current detection of Type AC (sinusoidal AC faults only). Rated breaking capacity is 4.5 kA per EN 60898 and 5 kA per IEC 60947-2 — adequate for most domestic and small commercial sub-distribution where the prospective fault current stays under those limits. The 50 Hz operating frequency matches standard mains supply in European and many Asian grids. Temperature derating is published across the full range: at 40 °C ambient it carries 30.4 A, at 50 °C it drops to 28.8 A, and at 70 °C it's down to 24.64 A.

Depth is 77 mm, height 90 mm, installation depth 70 mm. Mounts in any position — no orientation restrictions for the residual-current electronics. IP20 with the distribution board installed and conductors connected; not rated for wet or dusty environments without an enclosure. Halogen-free and silicon-free construction, which matters for clean-room or semiconductor-adjacent installs where outgassing contaminates optics or wafers.

Frequently asked questions

What is the breaking capacity of 5SU1653-1KL32?

4.5 kA per EN 60898 and 5 kA per IEC 60947-2 — enough for typical residential and light commercial sub-distribution.

What does the C-curve mean on this RCBO?

C-curve trips at 5–10× rated current (32 A), so it handles motor inrush and capacitive loads without nuisance tripping, while still clearing short circuits fast.

Where can I buy 5SU1653-1KL32 and how is it quoted?

Sourced to order against an RFQ through independent distribution. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time — no stock count or price is published here.

Will 5SU1653-1KL32 drop into a panel specified around 5SL6550-7BB without rewiring?

Both are 2-MW (36 mm) DIN-rail RCBOs, so the physical footprint is the same. But the 5SL6550-7BB is a different series with different ratings — verify the load current, residual type, and breaking capacity against your BOM before swapping.
