Siemens 5SL6316-7 - SENTRON Miniature Circuit Breaker, 3P, 16A, C-curve
Siemens 5SL6316-7 is listed as a SENTRON Miniature Circuit Breaker, 3P, 16A, C-curve. The family reference is SENTRON 5SL6. This page is intended for exact-reference procurement and replacement review, not for treating nearby catalog codes as automatic substitutes.
The visible catalog descriptor records 16A, 3P, C-curve. Before a purchase order, buyers should match pole count, rated current, trip curve, and breaking capacity, then confirm network voltage and prospective short-circuit level. Any value not shown here must be checked against the manufacturer datasheet or the installed-unit nameplate.
Price, availability, condition, test evidence, lead time, warranty period and export paperwork are quote-specific. A manager confirms those commercial fields after quantity, destination and required delivery window are known.
Exact-Match Checkpoints
Match pole count, rated current, trip curve, and breaking capacity.
Confirm network voltage and prospective short-circuit level.
Check busbar system, terminal direction, and module width.
Do not substitute a different curve solely because the ampere rating matches.

Compatibility and Replacement Decision
- Match pole count, rated current, trip curve, and breaking capacity.
- Confirm network voltage and prospective short-circuit level.
- Check busbar system, terminal direction, and module width.
- Do not substitute a different curve solely because the ampere rating matches.
Procurement Risks for This Device Type
- B, c, d, and other curves respond differently to inrush current.
- A lower breaking capacity can be unacceptable at the installed panel.
- Regional approval and busbar compatibility can differ by catalog variant.
Typical Use Cases
- Control-circuit protection.
- Machine distribution boards.
- Branch-circuit mro replacement.
HS and Export Review
The working product function is miniature automatic circuit protection apparatus. A fixed HS code is not asserted because classification can change with configuration, origin, destination, and broker interpretation. Confirm invoice description, origin evidence, packing data, and destination restrictions during the quote.
Condition, Testing, and Warranty Scope
- Require the quote to state whether the offered unit is factory-new, new surplus, refurbished, used, or another documented condition.
- Ask which visual, marking, packaging, continuity, functional, or bench checks are available for this miniature circuit breaker.
- Record the warranty period, start point, exclusions, return route, and evidence required for a claim.
- Do not release the PO until the condition and test scope match the maintenance plan and installation risk.
RFQ Evidence Checklist for 5SL6316-7
- Send the complete reference 5SL6316-7, quantity, destination, deadline, and acceptable split-delivery window.
- Attach the installed-unit nameplate, cabinet or machine context, connector view, and any manufacturer document already in use.
- State whether only an exact replacement is acceptable or whether a documented alternative can be reviewed.
- List required invoice, packing, origin, datasheet, inspection, broker, and warranty documents in the same RFQ.

What is known about Siemens 5SL6316-7?
The current reference record identifies 5SL6316-7 as a SENTRON Miniature Circuit Breaker, 3P, 16A, C-curve in SENTRON 5SL6. Values not stated on the page are deliberately left for manufacturer-datasheet or nameplate confirmation before PO release.
What must match before replacing 5SL6316-7?
Use the complete order code and match pole count, rated current, trip curve, and breaking capacity. Also confirm network voltage and prospective short-circuit level. A shortened reference or visual similarity is not enough evidence for interchangeability.
Is a fixed price published for 5SL6316-7?
No. A manager calculates the quote after quantity, destination, urgency, source availability and documentation requirements are known. The page does not publish a placeholder zero price.
How are condition, testing and warranty handled for 5SL6316-7?
The line-item quote should state the offered condition, available inspection or test evidence, packaging evidence, warranty period, exclusions and claim route. These fields are not assumed from the model number.
Can an alternative to 5SL6316-7 be reviewed?
Yes, but only after the installed role is documented. For this miniature circuit breaker, the proposed alternative should include a written mapping of the electrical, mechanical and system differences that affect commissioning.
Which export details are needed for 5SL6316-7?
The working classification starts from its function as miniature automatic circuit protection apparatus. Final HS treatment, origin evidence, invoice wording and destination documents are confirmed with the broker and shipment route.
