Product details

The AFDD function monitors for series arcs (rated 2 A to 6 A minimum to maximum) and parallel arcs (50 A to 500 A), tripping the breaker when it detects the high-frequency signature of an arc fault. This addresses a failure mode that a standard MCB or RCBO alone cannot detect — loose connections, damaged conductors, or aging insulation that create a sustained arc without drawing enough current to trip the overcurrent element.

Snap-on DIN rail (REG) mounting, 18 mm width (1 MW), 68.5 mm depth, 90 mm height. Installation depth is 70 mm.

Frequently asked questions

What is the closest functional second-source for 5SV6316-6KP06?

The peer MPNs 5SL3116-6MB, 5SY6040-6, and 5SY3132-6 are in the same SENTRON family but are not form-fit-function equivalents. The 5SV6316-6KP06 is unique in combining AFDD + RCBO in a single 1 MW unit; the peers are standalone RCBOs or MCBs without arc-fault detection. A drop-in replacement for the AFDD function does not exist in those alternatives — the 5SV6316-6KP06 is the only compact AFDD+RCBO in this rating.

Will 5SV6316-6KP06 drop into a panel specified around 5SL3116-6MB without rewiring?

No. The 5SL3116-6MB is a standalone RCBO without AFDD. The 5SV6316-6KP06 has the same 18 mm width and DIN-rail mounting, so it fits the same physical slot, but the wiring differs because the AFDD requires a neutral connection (1P+N design) and the internal arc-detection circuitry adds a pigtail. The panel's wiring scheme would need to accommodate the AFDD's additional connection.
