Product details

It avoids nuisance tripping on inrush from motor-starting loads, which would call for a C or D curve. At 40 °C ambient the 6 A rating derates to 5.63 A; at 55 °C it drops to 5.04 A. If the panel runs warm — say, a crowded DIN rail inside an enclosure with no forced cooling — the actual continuous current the MCB can carry without nuisance tripping is lower than the 6 A nameplate. Check the derating curve against your worst-case enclosure temperature. The 35 kA figure applies under the industrial standard, so it is suitable for sub-distribution in high-fault-capacity installations where a standard 10 kA MCB would need a current-limiting upstream device.

This MCB is designed for railway applications per the product designation, but it is also listed for general mechanical engineering and industry use. The 76 mm depth includes the quick-assembly fastening system; the installation depth is 70 mm. Combined top and bottom terminals allow daisy-chaining without extra bridging links, saving space in a crowded gland plate layout.

It carries touch protection on the terminals and is sealable for tamper-proof installations. The product is designed to DIN EN 60898-1 (the household and similar installations standard) and also meets IEC 60947-2 for industrial applications. Overvoltage category III suits fixed installations in building distribution. The energy limitation class is 3, meaning it limits let-through energy to a low level under fault conditions.

Frequently asked questions

How do I get pricing and availability for 5SY4106-6KK11?

This part is sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution. Current pricing and stock levels are confirmed at quote time.

What is the breaking capacity of 5SY4106-6KK11?

10 kA per DIN EN 60898-1 for general distribution, and 35 kA per IEC 60947-2 for industrial feeder duty. The higher figure applies under the industrial standard, so it can handle high-fault panels without an upstream current-limiting device.

What is the temperature derating for 5SY4106-6KK11?

At 35 °C the rated current is 6 A; at 40 °C it derates to 5.63 A; at 55 °C to 5.04 A; at 60 °C to 4.82 A. Always check the derating curve against your enclosure's worst-case ambient.

Will 5SY4106-6KK11 drop into a panel specified around 5SY4116-6CC?

Both are 1-pole SENTRON MCBs with the same 18 mm width and DIN-rail mounting, so the physical fit and wiring are identical. The difference is the rating: the 5SY4106-6KK11 is 6 A B-curve; the 5SY4116-6CC is a different current and curve. Check the load current and trip characteristic before substituting.
