The PXR20 LSIGAM trip unit delivers configurable overcurrent protection, improving selectivity and reducing nuisance trips. This translates to shorter downtime and safer maintenance windows in demanding industrial lines. Applications include production cells and motor control centers where precise protection is critical and downtime carries a high cost. Three-pole, fixed horizontal mounting streamlines installation and panel integration, reducing commissioning time and enabling straightforward retrofit into existing switchgear without extensive rewiring. This compatibility translates to faster project turnover and lower labor costs on site. An 85 kA interrupting rating provides high fault-current resilience, enhancing personnel safety and equipment longevity in switchgear assemblies found in heavy manufacturing, oil & gas, and power-intensive facilities. Double standard frame design offers compatibility with Magnum PXR units and supports easy upgrades or replacements within legacy installations, limiting operational disruption during modernization projects. Industry certifications—UL Listed, CE Marked, ANSI CSA Certified—facilitate multi-region procurement and compliance, reducing supplier fragmentation and accelerating quote-to-order cycles for global facilities. The breaker’s robust construction, with large dimensions and weight, signals durability in demanding environments and simplifies handling during installation and service. Access to Eaton’s specification sheets and application notes further streamlines engineering reviews and lifecycle planning.

FAQs

The MPS8503HEAXX2F uses the Power Xpert Release PXR20 trip unit, designed for seamless integration with Magnum PXR-enabled switchgear. It installs in standard Magnum double-frame configurations and aligns with fixed horizontal mounting, enabling quick retrofits with minimal panel modification while preserving coordination with upstream and downstream protection devices.
The unit features a three-pole configuration with an 85 kA interrupting rating and PXR20 LSIGAM trip unit for selective coordination. It is mounted fixed horizontally and measures 16.3 in depth, 16.8 in height, and 31.1 in width, with a weight of 237 lb. These specs translate to robust fault interruption, reliable protection in demanding loads, and predictable response in motor and process circuits.
Yes. The MPS8503HEAXX2F carries UL Listed, CE Marked, and ANSI CSA certifications, along with additional approvals such as KEMA, Lloyd's Register, DNV GL, and ABS. This broad certification portfolio supports procurement across multiple regions and simplifies regulatory compliance for global facilities.
For fixed horizontal mounting, ensure proper panel space, adequate clearance for wiring and cooling, and compatibility with the Magnum frame ecosystem. The 16.3 x 16.8 x 31.1 inch footprint and 237 lb weight inform handling requirements and rack or cabinet fitting. Use the provided manuals to verify torque specs, wiring diagrams, and airflow requirements to prevent overheating and ensure reliable operation.
The PXR20-based protection enables precise coordination, reducing nuisance trips and unplanned downtime, which lowers production losses. Its durable construction supports longer MTBF, while certified parts and online manuals streamline maintenance planning. Although initial cost is higher, the improved uptime, faster commissioning, and streamlined spare-part management contribute to a favorable total cost of ownership for multi-site industrial deployments.
