FAQs

Yes. The MPSC163MEAXX2C uses the Magnum PXR platform, featuring a standard frame and three-pole drawout design with motorized racking. It aligns with existing PXR configurations, simplifying retrofits in current panel racks and minimizing the need for new mounting hardware or rewiring.
The breaker is rated for 1600 A Iu with a 100 kAIC interrupt rating and employs the PXR20 LSIG trip unit. This combination delivers robust short-circuit protection, precise coordination, and rapid fault isolation suitable for high-demand LV feeders in industrial settings.
The PXR20 LSIG trip unit provides configurable, precise protection curves that enable selective coordination. In practice, it limits fault interruption to the smallest necessary section of the circuit, improving safety, reducing downstream impact, and helping facilities meet uptime and regulatory requirements.
Key certifications include UL Listed and CSA Certified, with CE Marking noted for international compliance. These approvals support regulatory adherence, ensure safety integrity, and facilitate procurement in sectors such as oil & gas, chemicals, and manufacturing sensitive to safety standards.
Benefits include reduced maintenance downtime via motorized racking for fast replacements, enhanced protection reliability reducing unplanned outages, and seamless integration with Power Xpert Protection Manager for monitoring. Together, they lower total cost of ownership by boosting uptime and simplifying diagnostics.
