Product details

It breaks fault currents up to 6 kA per EN 60898 and 5 kA per UL 1077 and CSA C22.2 No. 235, so it handles high-inrush loads like motor starters and small transformers without nuisance trips on startup.

Thermal derating and environment

Rated 16 A at 35 °C; at 40 °C it derates to 14.7 A, at 50 °C to 13.26 A, and at 55 °C to 12.5 A. Ambient range is -40 to 75 °C.

Frequently asked questions

What is 5SY6116-8CC's listed depth and width?

Depth is 76 mm, installation depth is 70 mm; width is 18 mm (one modular unit). These dimensions confirm it fits standard DIN-rail panels without extra clearance.

Will 5SY6116-8CC drop into a panel specified around 5SY7210-7CC without rewiring?

Both are 1-pole SENTRON MCBs on the same DIN-rail footprint (18 mm width, same depth), so mechanical fit is identical. However, 5SY7210-7CC has a different current rating and characteristic — verify the circuit's required rating before swapping.

Where can I buy 5SY6116-8CC and how is it quoted for volume purchases?

It is sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time.
