The Siemens 5SL7204-8RC is a SENTRON 5SL7 miniature circuit breaker (MCB) designed to provide reliable protection against overload and short-circuit conditions in compatible electrical installations. This MCB features a 4 A rated current, 2-pole configuration, D tripping characteristic, 415 V AC rated voltage and 15 kA short-circuit breaking capacity.
The Siemens 5SL7204-8RC 4A 2-pole MCB is suitable for electrical circuits where a D tripping characteristic is required. The D curve is generally selected for applications where connected equipment can produce relatively high starting or inrush currents. This makes it suitable for appropriately designed circuits involving inductive loads, transformers, motors, control equipment and selected industrial machinery.
The 2-pole configuration provides coordinated protection and switching for compatible two-pole circuits. The MCB can be incorporated into electrical distribution boards, industrial control panels, automation cabinets, machinery panels and OEM electrical assemblies.
With a 4 A rated current, the 5SL7204-8RC is suitable for appropriately designed low-current circuits and equipment protection applications. Correct coordination between the MCB, conductor capacity, connected load and upstream/downstream protective devices is essential for reliable operation.
The 415 V AC rating supports use in compatible electrical distribution systems. Combined with a 15 kA breaking capacity, this MCB is suitable for professional electrical protection applications where the system and installation conditions match its ratings.
As part of the Siemens SENTRON 5SL7 series, the 5SL7204-8RC can be considered by panel builders, OEMs, electrical contractors, system integrators and industrial maintenance teams.
The Siemens 5SL7204-8RC 4A 2-pole D curve MCB can be considered for:
The Siemens 5SL7204-8RC provides dependable circuit protection for applications requiring a 4 A, 2-pole MCB with D characteristic and 15 kA breaking capacity. Its 4 A rated current makes it suitable for appropriately designed low-current electrical circuits and control applications.
The D tripping characteristic is generally selected for circuits where connected equipment can experience comparatively high starting or inrush currents. This makes the MCB suitable for selected inductive loads, transformers, motors and industrial equipment, provided the complete circuit protection design supports this characteristic.
The 15 kA short-circuit breaking capacity provides a high specified fault-interruption capability for suitable installations. The prospective short-circuit current should always be assessed to ensure the protective device has adequate breaking capacity for the intended electrical system.
The 2-pole construction provides coordinated protection and switching for compatible two-pole circuits. This makes the device suitable for compact control panels, automation cabinets, distribution boards, machinery panels and OEM electrical assemblies.
The 4 A rated current allows the MCB to be used for suitably designed low-current circuits. Selecting the correct protective-device rating helps protect connected conductors and equipment while supporting reliable operation of the electrical system.
The 415 V AC rating supports use in compatible electrical distribution systems. This makes the MCB suitable for various industrial control, automation, machinery and electrical protection applications where the system voltage and load requirements match the device ratings.
The Siemens SENTRON 5SL7 series provides a practical solution for professional circuit protection requirements. The 5SL7204-8RC can therefore be considered for OEM panels, industrial automation systems, control cabinets, machinery and electrical distribution applications.
