The Siemens SENTRON miniature circuit-breaker (SKU: 5SY7106-8) is a 1-pole, D-characteristic device rated at 6 A designed for AC 230/400 V systems. It features a 15 kA breaking capacity and compact dimensions, making it suitable for industrial and mechanical engineering installations.
Ideal for protecting single-phase circuits in control panels and switchgear where compact size, high breaking capacity and robust tripping behaviour (Class D) are required — particularly in mechanical engineering, industrial installations and switchgear boards with inductive loads.
