The Magnum MPSC163VEAXXSW is a standard-frame, three-pole molded case circuit breaker with fixed vertical mounting. This configuration delivers a robust protection platform for main distribution and panelboard installations, supporting up to 1600 A and 100 kA interrupt rating in a compact footprint. The fixed vertical mount and standard frame simplify retrofits and replacements in busy industrial switchgear environments. Power Xpert Release trip-unit compatibility lets you configure protection curves and coordination without replacing the base breaker. This capability reduces nuisance trips and enables selective protection for feeders and critical motors, cutting downtime and maintenance costs. In new builds or upgrades, the ability to add or upgrade a trip unit without swapping the entire MCCB supports faster project timelines. Comprehensive certifications and compliance cover UL Listed, ANSI KEMA Certified, CSA Certified, and CE Marked, along with NEMA compliance. This mix supports global deployment and simplifies regulatory audits for facilities operating across multiple regions. The breadth of certification reduces procurement risk and accelerates project approvals. Customers can reference the supplier documentation and use the downloads library for certificates and compliance papers. Product dimensions and weight—14.6 in depth, 16.8 in height, 16.2 in width, and 118 lb—facilitate accurate enclosure space planning and mounting in crowded panels. The fixed vertical mounting supports uniform alignment with other field installed devices, improving reliability during maintenance. This predictability is especially valuable in retrofit projects or new installations in manufacturing, processing, and data-center support environments. Extensible technical documentation and renewal-part availability help extend asset life. Eaton provides manuals, datasheets, certificates, and renewal parts for Magnum PXR enabled systems, reducing downtime during service and upgrades. This ecosystem supports long-term ROI by preserving compatibility and easing parts sourcing across facility networks. From a procurement perspective, the MPSC163VEAXXSW offers a clear pathway to compliant, scalable protection with minimal risk. By pairing the base frame with optional Power Xpert Release units, teams can tailor protection to changing load profiles while maintaining standardization across sites.

FAQs

It is a standard-frame three-pole MCCB with fixed vertical mounting, designed for straightforward installation in industrial panels. The base unit ships without a trip unit, allowing you to specify a Power Xpert Release (PXR) trip unit or apply one later. This approach minimizes inventory variety while preserving protection versatility for future load changes.
Key electrical ratings include a 1600 A frame and 100 kA interrupting capacity, three-pole configuration, and fixed vertical mounting. This combination supports large motor and feeder protection in challenging environments. The device is intended for low-voltage distribution in panels, switchgear, and control centers, with robust performance under fault conditions and uptime considerations.
Yes. The three-pole MCCB is designed for industrial panelboards and motor control centers requiring reliable fault interruption and coordination. Its fixed frame and compatibility with Power Xpert Release trip units enable tailored protection schemes for feeders and critical equipment, helping to minimize nuisance trips while preserving selectivity across loads in harsh plant environments.
Certification coverage includes UL Listed, ANSI KEMA Certified, CSA Certified, and CE Marked, along with NEMA compliance. This mix supports global deployment and simplifies regulatory audits for facilities operating across multiple regions. The breadth of certification reduces procurement risk and accelerates project approvals. Customers can reference the supplier documentation and use the downloads library for certificates and compliance papers.
Lifecycle value comes from availability of renewal parts and extensive Eaton documentation, including manuals and product sheets. The base frame accepts upgrade with trip units, reducing replacement costs during lifecycle. Long-term ROI is enhanced by standardized parts across sites and minimal obsolescence risk. Maintenance planning becomes simpler with access to official certificates, TDS, and application notes.
