FAQs
For reliable field installation, note the three-pole 1600A frame, Frame 5 footprint, and the option to use Metric Conductor Extensions to suit your panel depth and busbar spacing. The unit’s dimensions (470 mm L, 305 mm W, 274 mm H) and weight (approx. 29.9 kg) influence enclosure size, mounting clearance, and cable routing. Plan for room to access the Modbus RTU interface and relay connections for diagnostics and control wiring.
Key specs include three-pole configuration, 1600A current rating, 50kA short-circuit rating at 415V, and a compact frame 5 design. It features Modbus RTU communication with an integrated relay set (PXR20D) for remote control and diagnostics. Overall dimensions are 470 mm (length) x 305 mm (width) x 274 mm (height) with a weight of 29,937 g, suitable for high-current, three-phase protection.
Yes. The device is a three-pole molded case circuit breaker rated for 1600A with a 50kA short-circuit capacity at 415V, making it well-suited for three-phase power distribution in industrial environments. Its modular Modbus RTU capability also supports integration with PLCs and SCADA systems to monitor load and protection status.
The product description references IEC/CCC alignment, indicating adherence to international and Chinese market frameworks. While explicit certification labels aren’t listed in the data, this alignment supports global applicability and regulatory documentation. For specific certifications like UL or CE, consult Eaton or the provided datasheet for confirmation.
ROI is driven by reduced downtime, improved fault isolation, and lower maintenance labor due to remote monitoring via Modbus RTU and integrated relays. The 1600A rating and 50kA capacity support large, reliable protection, while metric conductor extensions simplify installation and retrofits, leading to faster commissioning and lower total cost of ownership over the equipment lifecycle.
