Siemens 8PX2 50A Motor Circuit Protector - 480V/3P
50A MCP | 480V/3P | Magnetic-Only Trip | Motor Branch Protection
This Siemens 8PX2 50A motor circuit protector MCC bucket provides magnetic-only instantaneous trip protection, engineered to meet the most stringent specifications. Rated at 480V and 50A, it is specifically designed for motor branch circuit protection per NEC Article 430. Unlike thermal-magnetic breakers, this MCP offers precise magnetic trip settings that coordinate with downstream overload relays, delivering reliable performance under the most demanding load conditions. Deployed across oil and gas operations, food processing plants, and automotive assembly lines, the 8PX2 MCP bucket ensures Type 2 coordination when paired with compatible contactors and overload devices. Each unit ships factory-wired and tested for immediate plug-in installation with UL 508A and UL 845 compliance.
