5SL MCBs protect cables and loads in distribution boards and control panels. The 5SL6 series has a 6 kA rated breaking capacity, which suits most industrial sub-distribution and panel circuits. The code is easy to read: 5SL6 + number of poles + rated current, then -7 for the C characteristic or -6 for B. So 5SL6316-7 is a 3-pole, 16 A, C-curve breaker.
Use C-curve breakers for motors, transformers and loads with inrush current; B-curve breakers suit lighting and resistive loads with long cable runs. Busbars and auxiliary contacts are available for tidy board building.
We supply single breakers for maintenance and full sets for new panels and distribution boards. Tell us the poles, curve and current, or send the code from your board.
