5SU1636-7FP16

The Siemens 5SU1636-7FP16 is a 3-pole Residual Current Circuit Breaker with Overcurrent Protection (RCBO), designed to provide integrated protection against both residual current (earth leakage) and overcurrent (overload and short circuit) faults. This RCBO features a C-characteristic tripping curve, suitable for circuits with moderate inrush currents, and a 300mA residual current sensitivity, making it ideal for enhanced fire protection in industrial and commercial applications.
