High-capacity protection with 6000 A Iu and 85 kAIC interrupt rating translates to fewer upstream faults and reduced nuisance trips in large MCCs and distribution panels. The three-pole Magnum PXR design, combined with a double standard frame and drawout vertical mounting with extensions, supports flexible installation in both new builds and retrofits across heavy industrial environments. The Magnum PXR trip unit with LSIAM arms enables improved selective coordination, enabling zone selective interlocking where applicable. This reduces the scope of fault energy and limits outages to the minimum zone, improving uptime in critical processes such as packaging lines or metal fabrication. Installation and maintenance are streamlined by the drawout design and extensions mounting, allowing vertical installation with straightforward removal and testing. Compatibility with Power Xpert Protection Manager provides remote monitoring, event logging, and fleet protection analytics, which helps maintenance teams plan replacements and optimize lifecycle costs. The unit’s rugged construction fits standard industrial enclosures, supports zone selective interlocking, and enhances selective protection. UL Listed, CSA Certified, CE Marked, and NEMA compliant, it meets global regulatory requirements for multi-site deployments. These features deliver faster fault isolation and measurable uptime gains in critical processes.

FAQs

The MPS8603EEAXX2H uses drawout vertical mounting with extensions, enabling straightforward removal and service in limited spaces. With a three-pole Magnum PXR frame and a footprint compatible with standard enclosures, it fits both new installations and retrofits. The product dimensions (approximately 16.3 in deep, 16.8 in tall, 31.1 in wide) and a weight of about 237 lb support stable, field-ready installation while simplifying maintenance access.
Key specs include a rated Iu of 6000 A and an interrupt rating of 85 kAIC, which enable reliable protection for heavy feeders and motor loads. The three-pole configuration supports balanced protection across phases, while the PXR20 LSIAM trip unit provides precise tripping logic. Together, these specs reduce nuisance trips and improve fault clearance times in demanding applications.
Yes. The MPS8603EEAXX2H is designed for demanding industrial environments such as MCCs and switchgear. Its Magnum PXR trip unit, high Iu and interrupt capacity, and rugged build support reliable protection in large distribution schemes. The unit also integrates with Power Xpert Protection Manager for monitoring and predictive maintenance, helping ensure uptime in mission-critical processes.
The device is UL Listed, CSA Certified, and CE Marked, with additional compliance to NEMA standards and SABA/C CCC markings as applicable. This broad certification set supports multi-region procurement, reduces regulatory risk, and simplifies audits for global manufacturing sites and multi-site installations.
Using the MPS8603EEAXX2H with Power Xpert Protection Manager enables centralized protection management, real-time fault visibility, and coordinated trip schemes. These capabilities reduce downtime, optimize maintenance scheduling, and extend service intervals. While initial integration requires setup, the long-term value includes lower total cost of ownership through improved uptime and easier compliance reporting.
