Product details

Arc-fault + overcurrent in one 18 mm slot

The Siemens SENTRON 5SV6016-6KP16 is an AFDD-MCB combination unit — a single 1-module-wide (18 mm) DIN-rail device that packs both arc-fault detection (AFDD per IEC 62606) and a B-curve miniature circuit breaker (16 A, 6 kA breaking capacity to EN 60898-1 and IEC 60947-2). That means one part handles series/parallel arc-fault protection and overcurrent/short-circuit in a single 230 V AC, 1P+N circuit. No separate AFDD module eating a second slot.

Depth is 68.5 mm, installation depth 70 mm — fits flush in a standard 2-row residential DB without a protruding cover. Supplementary devices (shunt trip, auxiliary contacts, alarm switch) can be added on the right side without increasing the pole count.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy 5SV6016-6KP16 and how do I get a price?

The 5SV6016-6KP16 is available to source through independent distribution. Submit an RFQ for current pricing and availability — both are confirmed at quote time. No stock figures or price lists are published here.

What is the difference between 5SV6016-6KP16 and a standard MCB like 5SL3116-6MB?

The 5SV6016-6KP16 is an AFDD-MCB combination (arc-fault detection + overcurrent protection in one unit), while the 5SL3116-6MB is a standalone B-16A MCB with no arc-fault detection. Both are 1-module-wide, DIN-rail mounted, and share the same 90 mm height and 18 mm width. The AFDD variant adds series/parallel arc-fault protection, so it replaces both an MCB and a separate AFDD module in the panel. The standard MCB is rated 4.5 kA per EN 60898; the AFDD combo carries 6 kA.

Will 5SV6016-6KP16 drop into a panel that was specified around 5SL3116-6MB without rewiring?

Yes. Both are 1-module-wide (18 mm) DIN-rail units with the same 90 mm height. The 5SV6016-6KP16 is slightly deeper (68.5 mm vs 76 mm for the 5SL3116-6MB), so check enclosure depth clearance — but the footprint and wiring pattern are identical for the line and neutral conductors. No rewiring of the busbar or outgoing circuits is needed.

What compliance documentation does Siemens provide for 5SV6016-6KP16?

The unit carries approvals to EN 60898-1 and IEC 60947-2 (6 kA breaking capacity). It is halogen-free and silicon-free. For RoHS, REACH, and specific UL/IEC declarations, the manufacturer's standard compliance documentation applies — request the current declaration of conformity and material data sheet with your RFQ.
