Product details

Arc-fault + RCBO in one 18 mm slot

It occupies just one modular width (18 mm) on a DIN rail, which is tight for a 1P+N device that also carries arc-fault electronics. Rated 40 A, 30 mA, Type A, 6 kA per both IEC 60947-2 and EN 60898-1, it fits standard 50 Hz residential and light commercial panels. The pigtail connection simplifies wiring on the neutral side. Mounting position is unrestricted, and the IP20 rating holds with conductors connected.

The 30 mA residual-current threshold, Type A, catches sinusoidal AC faults plus pulsating DC faults — covers most modern electronics and variable-speed drives downstream. The arc-fault detection covers both series arcs (2 A to 40 A) and parallel arcs (50 A to 500 A), which means it can detect a loose connection at a terminal as well as a carbonized path between conductors. The 10 000 mechanical switching cycles is the typical mechanical endurance — fine for a distribution board, not for a daily-switched load.

DIN-rail integration notes

Width is 18 mm (1 MW).

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy 5SV6316-6KP40 and get a price?

Sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time — submit an RFQ for a firm number.

What is the closest functional second-source to 5SV6316-6KP40?

The peer MPNs listed (5SY3132-6, 5SY6008-7, 5SY4116-7CV) are standard MCBs or RCBOs from the same SENTRON family, but none combine arc-fault detection (AFDD) with the RCBO function. The 5SV6316-6KP40 is the only unit in that set that is an AFDD-RCBO combo. A bare RCBO like 5SY4116-7CV would not provide series/parallel arc protection.

What is 5SV6316-6KP40's listed depth?

Depth is 68.5 mm; installation depth is 70 mm to allow for the pigtail neutral lead and DIN-rail clip clearance.

What is 5SV6316-6KP40's listed width?

Width is 18 mm, which is one modular-width unit (1 MW) per DIN 43880.

What compliance documentation does Siemens provide for 5SV6316-6KP40?

The part is halogen-free and silicon-free. It carries IEC 60947-2 and EN 60898-1 ratings for breaking capacity. Standard Siemens SENTRON declaration of performance and CE marking apply. Specific RoHS/REACH declarations are available from Siemens documentation on request.
