Eaton MDL3800FW01 Molded Case Circuit Breaker Frame - 65 kAIC

Feature → Business Impact → Application: The MDL3800FW01 frame-only design enables seamless integration into existing Series C protected environs, reducing installation time and minimizing panel rework, which translates to lower project labor costs on new builds and retrofit projects. This contributes to faster commissioning and improved uptime in motor control centers where space is at a premium. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Fixed thermal and fixed magnetic trip type (T186) delivers reliable overcurrent protection with instantaneous response during short-circuits, mitigating equipment damage and safeguarding critical drives and feeders in manufacturing lines. This is essential for facilities requiring tight protection coordination and reduced fault severity, especially in high-current distributions. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Three-pole 800 A rating with 65 kAIC at 240 Vac and 50 kAIC at 480 Vac provides scalable protection for large motor loads and multi-feed circuits, enabling engineers to consolidate protection devices and simplify coordination studies. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Walking beam provisions facilitate easier wiring access and field tapping, improving maintenance efficiency and reducing labor time during terminal inspections and motor starter updates. Feature → Business Impact → Application: UL Listed certification supports compliance with NEC, NFPA, and regional safety requirements, giving procurement teams confidence in supplier reliability and reducing qualification time for new builds. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Compact Series C MDL frame dimensions (18 in L x 11 in W x 8 in H) with a 20 lb weight simplifies rack and panel planning while maintaining mechanical robustness, enabling more efficient enclosure layouts and better heat management in crowded panels.
