Part number
MDL3600V

Quick Summary

Eaton MDL3600V molded case circuit breaker protects low- to medium-voltage motor and power circuits in control panels. Operators frequently struggle to find a breaker delivering high interrupt ratings while fitting standard panel spaces. UL Listed and CSA Certified, with a 50°C ambient rating and a robust 65 kAIC at 240 Vac, support regulatory compliance. Designed for Series C environments, the MDL3600V integrates smoothly with existing MCCB stacks and offers predictable, maintainable protection. This enables engineers to meet safety standards while minimizing total cost of ownership over the life of the equipment. Designed for Series C environments in panelboards, switchgear, and machine control centers, it offers plug-in compatibility, clear wiring terminals, and straightforward field service. In practice, this translates to faster installation, reduced wiring errors, improved uptime, and reliable protection across 600 VAC and 600 VDC loads in today’s AS/IEC-compliant facilities.
