Product details

The Siemens SENTRON 5SV6016-6GV16 is an AFDD-MCB combination — an arc-fault detection device and miniature circuit breaker in one compact unit, rated 16 A, B-curve, with 6 kA breaking capacity per both EN 60898-1 and IEC 60947-2. It's a 1P+N (2-pole) design that fits a single 18 mm modular width on a DIN rail, so it drops into a standard residential or light-commercial distribution board without eating extra space.

Mounts on DIN rail (REG) in any position — no orientation restrictions.

That covers unheated utility rooms, outdoor-adjacent enclosures, and hot roof spaces.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy 5SV6016-6GV16 and how is it priced?

This part is sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time — submit a request for a firm price and lead time.

What is the difference between 5SV6016-6GV16 and a standard MCB like 5SL6006-7?

The 5SV6016-6GV16 is an AFDD-MCB combination that includes arc-fault detection, while the 5SL6006-7 is a standard miniature circuit breaker without arc-fault protection. The 5SL6006-7 has a C-curve (5-10x In) versus the B-curve (3-5x In) on the 5SV6016-6GV16. Both are 1P+N, 18 mm wide, DIN rail mount, and share the same 6 kA breaking capacity. The AFDD unit adds the arc-fault detection circuitry and is the right choice where IEC 60364 or local codes require arc-fault protection on final circuits.

What compliance documentation does this part carry?

The 5SV6016-6GV16 is designed to EN 60898-1 and IEC 60947-2 for breaking capacity. It's halogen-free and silicon-free. The SENTRON series typically carries CE marking and is manufactured under Siemens quality systems. For specific RoHS/REACH declarations or country-specific certifications, the manufacturer's documentation should be referenced.

Will 5SV6016-6GV16 fit in a panel designed for 5SL6006-7?

Yes — both are 18 mm wide, 1P+N, DIN rail mounted, with the same 70 mm installation depth. The 5SV6016-6GV16 is 68.5 mm deep versus 76 mm on the 5SL6006-7, so it actually sits slightly shallower. No rewiring or busbar repositioning needed; it's a drop-in swap on the same rail footprint.
