1-pole miniature circuit breaker B tripping characteristic 6kA breaking capacity 16A rated current DIN rail mounting Secure screw terminals

Product description

The Siemens 5SL6116-6 is a 1-pole miniature circuit breaker (MCB) designed for overcurrent protection in electrical installations. It features a B tripping characteristic, making it suitable for protecting circuits with low inrush currents, such as lighting and distribution circuits. With a rated current of 16A and a breaking capacity of 6kA at 230/400V, it provides reliable protection against overloads and short circuits.

This MCB is compliant with EN 60898-1 and IEC 60947-2 standards, ensuring high performance and safety. It is designed for easy installation on standard DIN rails and features screw terminals for secure connections. The compact design allows for efficient use of space in distribution boards and control panels.

Stanlo Automation, a veteran-owned surplus parts distributor, offers the Siemens 5SL6116-6 circuit breaker. We provide quality components at competitive prices, ensuring your electrical systems are protected and reliable.
