The Siemens 5SV1316-7GV06 is a SENTRON RCBO — residual current circuit breaker with overcurrent protection — rated 6 A at 30 °C with a C tripping characteristic and Type A residual current sensitivity. It occupies a single modular width (18 mm) on the DIN rail, making it a tight fit for densely packed sub-distribution boards where every slot counts.
The 6 A C-curve handles moderate inrush from small motor or lighting loads without nuisance tripping. Type A residual current detection covers pulsating DC faults from rectified loads — common in modern equipment with switched-mode power supplies or variable-speed drives. The 1P+N configuration switches the phase only, leaving the neutral solid; verify your distribution design expects a switched-phase, solid-neutral RCBO before specifying.
Current-production status per the manufacturer. Sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution; availability and current pricing confirmed at quote time.
Mounts in any position on a standard 35 mm DIN rail. The 77 mm depth fits flush in most enclosure depths, leaving cable management space behind the gland plate. IP20 rated with the distribution board installed and conductors connected — not for open-panel or washdown environments.
Breaking capacity: 6 kA per EN 60898 and 10 kA per IEC 60947-2. The higher IEC figure gives headroom for industrial panels with higher prospective fault currents. Derate the thermal rating when ambient exceeds 30 °C — at 50 °C the continuous current drops to 5.28 A, and at 70 °C to 4.44 A. Halogen-free and silicon-free construction suits clean manufacturing environments.
