MCP13300CR - 30Amp Motor Circuit Protector

MCP13300CR - 30Amp Motor Circuit Protector

To select a suitable replacement motor circuit protector, you need to look beyond matching the amp rating. For the MCP13300CR, key features include its 30A rating, three-pole arrangement, 600VAC rating, magnetic-only operation, and an instantaneous trip range of 100 to 300A.

Key Features and Benefits

• With the 30A, 3-pole setup, the electrical characteristics are clearly defined, making it easier to compare the MCP13300CR with an existing motor circuit protector.
• This Type MCP unit provides magnetic-only protection and has an instantaneous setting.
• The instantaneous trip range of 100-300A is an important reference point when verifying application compatibility.
• The product data provided specifies a voltage rating of 600VAC.
• The terminals that are not aluminum are included because the replacement application requires them.

Material Compliance and Certifications

The specifications indicate that the MCP13300CR has non-aluminum terminals. Still, they do not specify the exact metal or alloy, so it would be wrong to assume a more precise terminal material.

Where It Works Best

The 30 amp, 3-pole Type MCP motor circuit protector MCP13300CR is best suited for existing or obsolete electrical equipment and should be selected based on its 600VAC rating, instantaneous trip range of 100 to 300A, and non-aluminum terminals.
