FAQs

The MPSC163VEAXX2F is a standard-frame, three-pole breaker designed for fixed vertical mounting, compatible with Magnum enclosures and existing PD-SB/PD frame configurations. Its dimensions (14.6 in depth, 16.8 in height, 16.2 in width) and weight (approximately 118 lb) support straightforward retrofit, minimizing modification work and downtime during upgrades or new installations.
Key performance specs include an Iu rating of 1600 A and an interrupt rating of 100 kAIC, enabling safe interruption of large fault currents. This makes the unit ideal for high-load feeders in manufacturing plants, motor control centers, and critical power distribution where reliability and fast fault clearance directly influence uptime and safety.
The PXR20 LSIG ARMS trip unit provides precise zone-selective protection, improving selectivity and reducing arc-flash energy. Applications include complex switchgear and motor-driven processes where coordinated protection across multiple feeders is required to minimize unnecessary trips and protect equipment downstream.
This breaker is ANSI UL Listed, CSA Certified, CE Marked, and is certified by KEMA/LR among others. It is also CCC marked and NEMA compliant. These certifications support global deployment, supplier audits, and compliance with regional electrical codes for diverse industrial environments.
A comprehensive set of downloads is available, including specification sheets, application notes on selective coordination, time-current curves for PXR units, and maintenance guides. These resources help reduce commissioning time, simplify parts sourcing, and support ongoing maintenance, contributing to lower total cost of ownership and faster return on investment.
