Quick Summary

The Eaton MDL2600 molded case circuit breaker provides reliable overcurrent protection for industrial electrical panels and motor control centers. Engineers often struggle to match trip characteristics and interrupt ratings across varying voltages, which can lead to nuisance outages or undersized protection. UL Listed certification underpins safe, compliant installations in harsh factory environments. The Series C MDL frame with fixed thermal and fixed magnetic trip delivers precise protection for motor loads and power distribution, while the 600 A rating supports mid-size applications at up to 600 Vac and 250 Vdc. This combination reduces downtime, streamlines procurement, and simplifies maintenance through common accessories and a robust Eaton service network.

Fixed thermal and fixed magnetic trip in the MDL2600 delivers fast, predictable protection for motor and power circuits. This translates to shorter fault clearing times and reduced damage to equipment, cutting repair costs and downtime. Ideal for two-pole configurations in panelboards and motor control centers, it supports mid-size industrial applications that demand reliable protection across a wide voltage range. With an interrupt rating of 50 kAIC at 480 Vac and 65 kAIC at 240 Vac, the MDL2600 handles high fault currents common in industrial environments, reducing the risk of collateral damage to upstream equipment. Designed as a complete MDL frame breaker, the unit is compatible with Series C accessories and standard MCCB configurations, simplifying installation and spare-part planning. UL Listed status plus Eaton's warranty provide risk mitigation for procurement and maintenance teams, while 50/60 Hz operation aligns with most facilities. The Series C design supports easy retrofits and scalable protection as systems grow, delivering lower total cost of ownership and improved uptime.
