Eaton MPSC163MEAXX2F Magnum low-voltage breaker - 100 kA
Part Number: MPSC163MEAXX2F
Quick Summary
Eaton Magnum low-voltage breaker protects electrical networks by interrupting fault currents in industrial switchgear. Users often battle nuisance trips, limited fault diagnosis, and rising maintenance costs when protection hardware ages. This unit carries UL Listed, CE Marked, and ANSI/CSA certifications, backed by Lloyd's Register and DNV GL approvals for global deployment. With a Magnum PXR trip unit and standard frame, it offers scalable protection and improved lifecycle costs for critical load centers, manufacturing lines, and data-center feeders. Designed for three-pole drawout installation with motorized racking and Power Xpert Release integration, it reduces commissioning time and maintenance shocks. Engineered for 1600 A continuous current (Iu) and 100 kA interrupt rating, it coordinates with upstream protection to minimize arc flash exposure.
