Product details

It delivers a 10 kA breaking capacity per EN 60898 and 5 kA per UL 1077 / CSA C22.2 No. 235 — enough to clear fault currents in a standard industrial panel without cascading upstream. The C-curve trips between 5-10× rated current, so it holds motor inrush and transformer energization while still protecting branch circuits against hard shorts.

The 16 A rating holds at 35 °C ambient. Above that, the MCB derates: 15.04 A at 40 °C, 14.54 A at 45 °C, 14.02 A at 50 °C, and 13.47 A at 55 °C.

The MCB carries approvals per EN 60898 (10 kA), UL 1077 and CSA C22.2 No. 235 (5 kA). Sealable design allows lockout/tagout. Vibration resistance per IEC 60068-2-6: ±1 mm at 5–25 Hz, 50 m/s² at 25–150 Hz — holds takt time on a weld-line panel.

Frequently asked questions

How do I get current pricing and availability for 5SY4516-7CC?

Submit an RFQ through this listing. Pricing and stock are confirmed at quote time through independent distribution channels.

What is 5SY4516-7CC's depth and width?

Depth is 76 mm, width is 36 mm (2 modular width units), height is 90 mm. Installation depth is 70 mm.

Will 5SY4516-7CC drop into a panel specified around 5SL6016-7KL?

No — the 5SY4516-7CC is a 2-pole (1P+N) MCB in 2 MWU (36 mm), while the 5SL6016-7KL is a 1-pole unit in 1 MWU (18 mm). The wider footprint and extra neutral pole require rewiring and a different DIN-rail slot allocation.

What compliance documentation does this MCB carry?

It is certified to EN 60898 (10 kA breaking capacity), UL 1077 and CSA C22.2 No. 235 (5 kA). It is halogen-free, silicon-free, and rated for pollution degree 3, overvoltage category III.
