The Siemens 5ST3030 is a shunt release accessory designed for seamless integration with the SENTRON series of miniature circuit breakers, including models 5SL4, 5SY, 5SP, and the RCBO 5SU1, as well as the FI 5SV. This component is essential for remote tripping of the circuit breaker, allowing for quick disconnection of power in response to a control signal, enhancing the operational efficiency and safety of electrical systems.
Crafted with precision, the 5ST3030 operates within a voltage range of 110 to 415 V AC and is suitable for a variety of applications across different industries. Its compact dimensions, with a height of 90 mm, width of 18 mm, and depth of 70 mm, ensure that it can be easily accommodated within electrical distribution setups without requiring significant space.
The shunt release is built to withstand the rigours of industrial environments, with an operating temperature range of -25 to +55 °C and a storage temperature range of -40 to +75 °C, ensuring reliability and durability. The device is also IP20 rated, indicating protection against solid objects larger than 12.5 mm but not against liquids, which is standard for components intended for use within enclosures.
With an electrical endurance of typically 20,000 switching cycles, the Siemens 5ST3030 is a robust choice for enhancing the functionality of circuit protection devices. It is an indispensable component for those seeking to maintain a high level of control and safety in their electrical circuits.

What is the purpose of a shunt release like this one?
A shunt release is designed to enable remote tripping of a circuit breaker. When an electrical signal is applied, it triggers the mechanism to open the circuit, allowing for power systems to be quickly and safely shut down from a distance.
Can this shunt release be used with any miniature circuit breaker?
This shunt release is specifically designed for use with Siemens 5SL4, 5SY, 5SP, RCBO 5SU1, and FI 5SV miniature circuit breakers. It is important to match the shunt release to the correct type of circuit breaker for proper operation.
What voltage is required to operate this shunt release?
The shunt release operates within a voltage range of 110 to 415 V AC, making it versatile for use in various electrical systems.
What are the dimensions of this shunt release?
The shunt release measures 18 mm in width, 76 mm in height, and 90 mm in depth, making it compact and suitable for installation in space-constrained environments.
What is the protection class of this shunt release?
This shunt release is rated at IP20, indicating that it has protection against solid objects larger than 12.5 mm but not against water.
What is the ambient temperature range for operating this shunt release?
The shunt release can operate within an ambient temperature range of -25 to +55 °C, ensuring reliable performance in a variety of environmental conditions.
How many contacts does this shunt release have?
The shunt release has two normally open (NO) contacts and does not have any normally closed (NC) or change-over contacts.
What is the electrical endurance of this shunt release?
The electrical endurance of the shunt release is typically around 20,000 switching cycles, indicating its durability and longevity in operational use.
What conductor cross-section can be connected to this shunt release?
The shunt release can accommodate connectable conductor cross-sections ranging from 0.5 to 2.5 mm², suitable for standard wiring requirements.
Is any additional equipment required to mount this shunt release to a circuit breaker?
For certain applications, such as when pairing with a RCBO 5SU1, a handle coupler like the 5ST3805-1 may be required for proper mounting.
