Part number
MPS8404VEAXX2C

Quick Summary

Eaton Magnum low voltage power circuit breaker provides reliable overload protection for industrial power distribution. In mission-critical facilities, mis-coordination and slow fault clearing drive downtime, safety risks, and costly unplanned shutdowns. This model carries CE marking, UL listing, and CSA certification, with Lloyd's Register and ANSI approvals that support global compliance. Coupled with the Power Xpert Release (PXR) LSIG trip unit and fixed vertical mounting, it offers precise protection and straightforward integration into standard panels. With a 4000 A rating and an 85 kA interrupt capacity, it supports scalable distribution while reducing downtime and maintenance costs. Engineered for easy field retrofits and consistent coordination across feeders, it aligns with selective coordination papers and zone interlocking guidance.

Four-pole design with fixed vertical mounting improves fault isolation and panel space efficiency, enabling straightforward retrofits in existing switchgear. Business impact: faster commissioning, reduced panel depth constraints, and easier wiring. Application: suitable for large-distribution panels in manufacturing facilities that require robust four-pole protection and compact installation footprint. The PXR20 LSIG trip unit enhances protection coordination, reducing arc-flash exposure and enabling precise fault isolation. Business impact: safer maintenance windows and lower energy losses; Application: data centers and process lines with demanding uptime requirements. High interrupt capacity of 85 kA and current rating up to 4000 A support heavy-load feeders. Business impact: protects critical loads during faults, minimizes equipment damage, and improves system reliability; Application: main feeders and distribution bus sections in industrial plants. Compliance and certification coverage—UL Listed, CE Marked, CSA Certified, plus Lloyd's Register and ANSI approvals—deliver confidence for global projects. Business impact: simplifies procurement and speeds project sign-off; Application: multinational facilities with strict regulatory requirements. Zone selective interlocking and installation guidance are reinforced by Eaton’s application papers, enabling safer, faster, and more predictable protection strategies. Business impact: improved fault discrimination and reduced downtime across multi-feeder schemes; Application: complex switchgear where selective coordination is essential. Installation compatibility is reinforced by fixed-vertical-mount design and standard Magnum frames, enabling smoother integration with Power Xpert protection ecosystems. Business impact: reduced commissioning risk and streamlined panel-to-panel expansion; Application: retrofit projects that must align with existing Power Xpert components and protection plans.
