Siemens 5SL6163-7RC MCB 63A 1-Pole C Characteristic 7.5kA

The Siemens 5SL6163-7RC is a SENTRON 5SL6 miniature circuit breaker (MCB) designed to provide dependable protection against overload and short-circuit conditions in suitable electrical installations. This Siemens MCB features a 63 A rated current, 1-pole configuration, C tripping characteristic and 7.5 kA short-circuit breaking capacity, making it suitable for appropriately designed electrical distribution, control and equipment protection applications.

The Siemens 5SL6163-7RC 63A 1-pole MCB is designed for individual circuits where reliable overcurrent protection is required in a compact modular format. Its C tripping characteristic is generally suitable for general-purpose electrical circuits where moderate starting or inrush currents may occur. This makes it a practical option for selected distribution circuits, control applications and compatible electrical equipment.

The 1-pole configuration provides a compact solution for individual circuit protection. It can be integrated into electrical distribution boards, industrial control panels, automation cabinets, machinery panels and OEM electrical assemblies where space-efficient circuit protection is required.

With a 63 A rated current, the 5SL6163-7RC is suitable for appropriately designed higher-current individual circuits. Proper coordination between the MCB rating, connected load, conductor capacity and upstream and downstream protection is essential for reliable electrical operation.

The 7.5 kA short-circuit breaking capacity provides the specified fault-interruption capability for suitable installations. The prospective short-circuit current at the installation point should always be evaluated to ensure that the selected MCB provides adequate protection for the electrical system.

As part of the Siemens SENTRON 5SL6 series, the 5SL6163-7RC offers a compact modular circuit protection solution for professional electrical installations. It can be considered by panel builders, OEMs, electrical contractors, system integrators and industrial maintenance teams looking for reliable Siemens circuit protection products.

Benefits

The Siemens 5SL6163-7RC provides dependable circuit protection for applications requiring a 63 A, 1-pole MCB with C characteristic and 7.5 kA breaking capacity. Its compact 1-pole design makes it suitable for protecting individual circuits while helping maintain an organized arrangement inside electrical distribution boards and control panels.

The C tripping characteristic is generally suited to general-purpose electrical circuits where moderate starting or inrush currents can occur. It can therefore be considered for appropriately designed distribution, control and equipment circuits where the connected load is compatible with a C-curve protective device.

The 7.5 kA breaking capacity provides the specified capability to interrupt suitable short-circuit fault currents within the applicable ratings of the MCB. Proper assessment of the prospective short-circuit current is important to confirm that the device is suitable for the intended electrical installation.

The 1-pole construction offers a compact solution for individual circuit protection. This can be useful in distribution boards, industrial control cabinets, automation panels, machinery systems and OEM electrical assemblies where dedicated circuit protection is required.

The 63 A rated current makes this Siemens MCB suitable for appropriately designed higher-current individual circuits. Correct coordination between the protective-device rating, conductor capacity and connected load is essential to provide effective overcurrent protection.

The C characteristic provides a practical solution for many standard electrical loads with moderate inrush currents. Where connected equipment has substantially higher starting currents, another tripping characteristic may be more appropriate depending on the application.

As part of the Siemens SENTRON 5SL6 family, the 5SL6163-7RC provides a professional modular circuit protection solution for industrial, commercial, OEM, automation and electrical distribution applications.
