3-Pole configuration C-curve tripping 6kA interrupting rating 400V AC operational voltage DIN rail mountable Three-phase protection

The Siemens 5SX23 C16 is a 3-pole miniature circuit breaker (MCB) from the 5SX series, engineered for robust overcurrent and short-circuit protection. It features a C-curve tripping characteristic, a rated current of 16A, a breaking capacity of 6kA, and an operating voltage of 400V AC. This MCB is designed to safely interrupt fault currents across three conductors.

This 3-pole, 16A breaker is ideal for protecting three-phase circuits in industrial and commercial environments, such as for small to medium-sized motors, distribution boards, and machinery requiring simultaneous switching of all three phases. Its C-curve is suitable for loads with moderate inrush currents.
