Product details

It snaps onto a DIN rail — 18 mm wide, one modular unit — and mounts in any position, so panel layout is flexible.

Breaking capacity — what it means for your panel

The same 15 kA rating applies for DC circuits per IEC 60947-2, so it works on DC branches too.

Thermal derating — don't oversize the bus

The 15 A rating holds at 35 °C ambient. At 40 °C it derates to 14.28 A; at 50 °C to 13.53 A; at 55 °C to 13.12 A. If the panel runs hot — say, 50 °C inside a sealed enclosure — expect the breaker to carry about 10 % less than its nameplate. Plan the branch load accordingly.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy the 5SY6118-7?

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

What is the breaking capacity of the 5SY6118-7?

6 kA per EN 60898 and 15 kA per IEC 60947-2 for AC circuits; 15 kA for DC per IEC 60947-2.

Does the 5SY6118-7 replace the 5SY7210-7CC?

No — this is a different current rating (15 A C-curve vs the 5SY7210-7CC's 10 A C-curve). They share the same SENTRON family and DIN-rail footprint, but the breaker size must match the branch circuit design; they are not drop-in substitutes without re-evaluating the load.
