FAQs

For proper installation, ensure compatibility with the Magnum standard-frame, three-pole drawout design and vertical mounting. Verify panel space for a 14.6 in length, 16.2 in width, and 16.8 in height unit, align bus bars, and allow maintenance clearance for easy drawout. Follow Eaton’s mounting and torque guidelines and verify upstream protection coordination during commissioning.
The PXR20 LSIG trip unit provides configurable long-time, short-time, and instantaneous protection with LSIG options, enabling precise coordination with upstream devices. This reduces nuisance trips downstream, improves selectivity in multi-feed configurations, and supports faster fault isolation while maintaining system safety and reliability.
Yes. With a 1600 A rating, 100 kA interrupting capacity, three-pole design, and a configurable PXR20 LSIG trip unit, the breaker supports selective coordination across feeders and main breakers. This minimizes outages and maintains critical loads, which is essential for continuous operation in manufacturing, water treatment, and process industries.
The unit carries UL Listed, CSA Certified, CE Marked, along with other certifications such as KEMA and Lloyd’s Register. It also shows NEMA compliance and CCC Marking. These certifications simplify regulatory approval, qualify for multiple markets, and provide documented reliability and safety assurance for industrial installations.
ROI comes from reduced downtime due to reliable selective protection, longer service life, and easier maintenance with drawout design. Integration with Power Xpert Protection Manager enables centralized monitoring, faster fault diagnosis, and optimized protection settings across panels, lowering total cost of ownership and improving asset uptime.
