Eaton LDB2600W Molded Case Circuit Breaker - 65 kAIC at 240V
Part Number: LDB2600W
Quick Summary
The Eaton LDB2600W molded case circuit breaker delivers reliable fault interruption for motor control and power distribution panels. Engineers often struggle to meet high short-circuit ratings in compact enclosures, driving longer lead times and costly redesigns. Key certifications include UL 489 safety certification, which ensures compliance for panel builders in North American markets, and the device’s 50/60 Hz operating range supports global installations. The Series C L-frame design balances rugged protection with modular installation, offering a two-pole solution that fits standard enclosures. For integrators and OEMs, this breaker delivers predictable coordination and reduced engineering risk, while offering compatible accessories such as StrandAble terminals to streamline field wiring and maintenance.

High interrupt rating translates to protective margin. The LDB2600W delivers 65 kAIC at 240 VAC and 35 kAIC at 480 VAC, providing a substantial margin for fault currents. This reduces equipment damage, downtime, and downstream service costs in motor feeders and distribution panels. The result is safer, more reliable operation in demanding industrial environments. Series C L-frame, complete breaker design. This configuration matches standard panel footprints, simplifying retrofits and reducing enclosure modification needs. The business impact is faster installations, lower spare-parts inventory, and improved project predictability for OEMs and panel builders. Fixed thermal and fixed magnetic trip (T186). Precise protection coordinates with system dynamics to minimize nuisance trips and ensure smooth startup sequences. Application across varied loads means fewer unplanned outages and better lifecycle protection for conveyor belts, pumps, and presses. Terminal flexibility and accessory compatibility. By default without terminals, it enables tailored wiring solutions using appropriate lugs or adapters, while StrandAble terminals and related accessories offer streamlined field wiring and maintenance. This flexibility supports rapid upgrades and cost-efficient panel modernization. UL 489 certification and a clear warranty path. Compliance with UL 489 reduces validation time for panel installations, while the Eaton 25-000 warranty provides a defined support window for service teams, distributors, and end users seeking long-term reliability in harsh industrial settings.
