FAQs
The MPSC253WEAXX2Q is designed for drawout vertical mounting with the PXR25 LSIAM trip unit. For installation, verify panel compatibility, ensure correct alignment with the standard Magnum frame, and connect the trip unit to the protection communication bus as outlined in the Magnum PXR user manuals. Practically, this supports faster commissioning, reduces wiring errors, and enables seamless integration with Power Xpert Protection Manager for monitoring and diagnostics.
Key ratings include three-pole operation, a 2500 A current rating, and a 100 kA interrupting capacity. The device uses a standard Magnum frame and delivers reliable protection for high-energy feeders. This combination supports robust short-circuit interruption and facilitates selective coordination with downstream protection devices, aligning with typical industrial power distribution requirements.
Yes. The PXR25 LSIAM trip unit enables configurable protection settings that support selective coordination across feeders in motor control centers. When paired with the Power Xpert Protection Manager, you can monitor and tune protection schemes in real time, reducing nuisance trips and downtime while maintaining safety and compliance in demanding motor-driven applications.
This Magnum breaker carries UL Listed, CE Marked, and ANSI CSA Certified approvals, along with additional third-party validations such as Lloyd's Register and DNV GL support. These certifications help meet global safety and reliability standards, simplify multi-site procurement, and ensure compliance for industrial installations across North America and Europe.
Maintenance benefits include easier field servicing due to the drawout design, modular PXR trip-unit upgrades, and compatibility with Power Xpert Protection Manager for remote diagnostics. ROI drivers come from reduced downtime, extended device life through precise coordination, and fewer spares required because a single device covers high-current protection needs in MCCs and large feeders.
