FAQs

Yes. The PDC53K1600E2XR is designed for Frame 5, three-pole configurations, with rear terminals included to simplify wiring. Verify enclosure space (629 mm L x 365 mm H x 387 mm W) and ensure panel cutouts and mounting patterns align with Eaton installation drawings before deployment.
Key specs include 1600 A current rating, 50 kA short-circuit breaking capacity at 415 V, and a three-pole configuration. It uses PXR20 LSIs with CAM Link, ZSI and relays for enhanced protection logic and remote signaling, with rear-terminal wiring for straightforward installation.
Yes. The 1600 A frame with 50 kA short-circuit rating supports large feeder protection, while CAM Link and ZSI/relays enable selective coordination. For packaging lines, this MCCB helps minimize downtime by quickly isolating faults without affecting adjacent circuits.
Manufacturer notes indicate general compliance; verification should be done against Eaton’s specification sheets and local regulatory requirements. Common global standards to review include CE marking and IEC 60947-2 safety compliance, with UL/CSA as applicable by region.
Rely on Eaton’s published datasheets and installation videos for routine checks. The included CAM Link and ZSI/relays enable easier diagnostics, while the Frame 5 architecture supports modular maintenance. Regular inspection of terminals, trip unit status, and protective relays will help sustain reliability.
