High interrupt rating and continuous-current capability drive reliable protection in demanding facilities. The MPSC253HEAXX2Q delivers 100 kAIC interrupt capacity and 2500 A Iu, meaning fewer nuisance trips and safer fault clearance for feeders, panels, and motor-driven loads. This translates to improved equipment uptime and reduced arc energy exposure in high-footprint switchgear. Power Xpert Release trip unit (PXR25 LSI ARMS) enables advanced coordination and fast, accurate tripping. In distribution panels and motor control centers, selective tripping minimizes downstream outages and simplifies maintenance while meeting UL, CE, and CSA requirements. The unit integrates with Power Xpert Protection Manager for remote monitoring and alarms. Three-pole, standard-frame Magnum PXR provides compatibility with existing enclosures and installation practices, reducing retrofit cost and installation time. The fixed horizontal mounting and standard dimensions support straightforward integration into new or rebuilt switchgear. Combined with UL, CE, and CSA certifications, this breaker addresses multinational projects and ensures regulatory compliance. Documentation and renewal parts ecosystem support lifecycle management. Access to manuals, application notes, and renewal parts reduces spare parts inventory and maintenance downtime. Compatibility with zone selective interlocking concepts and coordination papers helps engineers design protective schemes that improve safety and uptime. Compatibility with accessories and renewal parts from Magnum PXR line ensures long-term availability. The 3-pole design simplifies wiring documentation and reduces risk during commissioning. Engineers benefit from quick-start guides, warranty coverage, and service bulletins in the downloads library. From a cost-of-ownership perspective, the 100 kAIC rating reduces transformer and switchgear overstress during faults, potentially lowering insurance costs. In projects with remote monitoring, Power Xpert Protection Manager x64 22.6 utilities streamline fault data analysis and maintenance planning.
