EATON Magnum PXR low-voltage switchgear

For more than 70 years, Eaton has been a premier leader in power distribution equipment. Magnum PXR switchgear, brings a new look along with the integration of Power Xpert Release trip units, providing what you expect and much more, with added safety features, enhanced functionality and communications.

Rear access
Lower installation and maintenance costs, higher interrupting and withstand ratings, enhanced safety, higher quality, reliability and maintainability

Front access
When floor space is limited, or room constraints dictate that equipment be mounted against a wall, why compromise on switchgear design?
Eaton's Magnum PXR front-accessible switchgear combines the robustness of UL® 1558 low-voltage switchgear with the flexibility of UL 891 switchboard design. The front-accessible switchgear offering allows mounting against a wall, or in other tight locations, where a standard rearaccessible switchgear lineup would not normally fit.

Arc-resistant rear access
Arc faults can generate thermal energy as high as 35,000°F and a blast equivalent to 20.7 lbs of TNT. Arc-resistant gear is designed to safely redirect and contain these arcs should they occur, regardless of the originating location of the arc. Arc-resistant Magnum PXR switchgear has been tested in all three compartments for a full 0.5 seconds, passing IEEE/ANSI Type 2B standards at 100 kA at 508 V and 85 kA at 635V.

· Short circuit current rating (SCCR) up to 85 kAIC @ 635 Vac max and up to 100 kAIC @ 508 Vac max
· Up to 10,000 A continuous current ­ horizontal main bus
· Up to 5,000 A continuous current ­ vertical riser bus
· Type 2B
· Plenum & direct venting available
· Clearance @ 10' floor-to-ceiling
· 60" minimum line-up width
· 72" ­ 90" structure depth
· Allowing drawout of breaker while maintaining type 2B approachability rating
· Venting system directs arc gasses to top of the enclosure
· Up to four-high breaker configuration
· NEMA 1 enclosure, with either top or bottom cable or bus duct entry

Type 2B secondary compartment

Shown without plenum. Plenum and duct can be added upon request.
Arc-resistant front access
Arc-resistant front-accessible switchgear from Eaton provides the robustness and strength of arc-resistant rear-accessible construction, but with the flexibility of an innovative front-accessible design. This unique gear design allows for mounting against a wall, while protecting operating and maintenance personnel from potentially dangerous arcing events.
· Short circuit current rating (SCCR) up to 85 kA @ 635 Vac max and up to 100 kA @ 508 Vac max
· Up to 6,000 A continuous current ­ horizontal main bus
· Up to 5,000 A continuous current ­ vertical riser bus

Magnum PXR Switchgear Accessories
Genuine Magnum PXR switchgear accessories improve the reliability, safety and longevity of the switchgear.

Arc Quenching
Arc Quenching Switchgear detects and contains an arc fault in less than 4 milliseconds, drastically reducing the incident energy. It works by detecting the ignition of an arc inside the switchgear using the Eaton Arc Flash Relay and transferring it to the Arc Quenching Device. Arc Quenching Switchgear transfers the arc by creating a lower impedance arc, not a bolted fault, safely contained inside the Arc Quenching Device. This reduces the peak fault current by at least 25% and puts less stress on upstream equipment during an arc fault.

· Tested to ANSI/IEEE C37.20.7, Type 2B test guide in NEMA 1 construction
· Arc Quenching Device (AQD) is a UL Recognized Component per UL 2748
· Short circuit withstand rating up to 100 kA at 635 V ac
· <4 ms arc quenching time
· >25% reduction in peak fault current
· >44% reduction in peak system stress
· Complete system selfsupervision with health status communicated via Modbus and dry contacts
· Anti-nuisance trip technology
· Available in rear access and

front access switchgear configurations · Available in NEMA 1, and NEMA 3R walk-in enclosure types
· Exceptional incident energy reduction
· Enhanced safety
· Advanced switchgear protection
· Dramatically reduced downtime

EATON Magnum PXR low-voltage switchgear

Remote racking device
The MRR1000 permits the operator to open and close a breaker from up to 25 feet away during the rack-in or withdraw process, well beyond the arc flash boundary.

Cable lashing device
The Cable Lashing Device can be used to secure cables faster, easier and more reliably when compared to the traditional rope lashing method.

MagnumTM PXR shutter module
The Magnum PXR shutter module is used to test the operation of the shutters with the breaker removed. It also permits access to the bus stabs for inspection and testing.

Integrated testing
Integrated testing with the use of Power Xpert Protection Management (PXPM) removes the need for costly and potentially complicated external test kits

Automatic transfer and intelligent control packages

Low-voltage switchgear elevation nd one line view

Eaton's Magnum PXR low-voltage switchgear offers optional pre-engineered automatic transfer and intelligent control packages with features that can be modified to meet specific requirements. The packages are available in standard switchgear as well as both front and rear access equipment. Classified by the interface, the automatic transfer and intelligent control packages are as follows:
· Eaton ATC-900 controller
· Eaton PLC with Eaton touchscreen
· Power XpertTM dashboard

Features and benefits
Eaton ATC-900 controller
This controller can be utilized for transfer in a lineup with Main-Main, Main-Generator or Generator-Generator application (no tie-breaker present). This option will include a selector switch for Auto/ Manual as well as generator start/stop/exercise.
Eaton PLC with Eaton touchscreen Using the Eaton PLC and Eaton touchscreen, Eaton can provide automatic and Main-Tie-Gen transfer to increase uptime and efficiency. The desired sequence of operation can be selected during project quotation.

Power Distribution Monitoring and Control ­ Enhanced
The Power Distribution Monitoring and Control ­ Enhanced is an intelligent collection of views which allow users to configure a switchgear assembly and continuously monitor and control various devices and parameters. The dashboard can be integral to the switchgear assembly or remotely mounted offering a monitoring and control option outside the arc flash zone. It provides features required to maintain a switchgear assembly such as:
· Remotely open/close circuit breakers through control mode
· Initiate a transfer scheme in a Main-Tie-Main or Main-Tie-Gen switchgear for uninterrupted power supply
· Ability to configure/monitor alarms for various devices
· Provides a rich interface to monitor parameters of all devices and study the trends of those parameters.
