Quick Summary

The Eaton PDC53K1600D5YM molded case breaker protects electrical panels by interrupting fault currents up to 1600 A. In high-demand systems, nuisance trips and wiring complexity can drive unexpected downtime and maintenance challenges. Note: regulatory certifications such as CE marks, IP ratings, or SIL status are not specified in the dataset and require confirmation from Eaton; however, the device aligns with IEC/CCC Frame 5 architecture and supports Modbus RTU, CAM Link, ZSI and relays for integrated monitoring and control. With metric conductor extensions and a compact footprint, installation in modern automation panels is streamlined, delivering reliable protection and predictable service life. This combination delivers measurable business value by reducing downtime, simplifying maintenance planning, and enabling scalable protection for growing facilities.
