PC33000F - 3000 Amp Max. *Frame Only*

Need a PC33000F circuit breaker frame for an existing electrical system? Getting the details right matters, especially when you’re working with legacy equipment. The PC33000F is a Type PC, 3000-amp, 3-pole SELTRONIC circuit breaker frame with standard long-delay and magnetic trip characteristics. It is a 160-cycle, frame-only unit measuring approximately 22 inches high, 12 inches wide, and 9 inches deep. Its interrupting ratings are 100k AIC at 600VAC, 100k AIC at 480VAC, and 125k AIC at 240VAC. Those specifications make this breaker frame useful for maintenance and replacement situations where the existing equipment calls for this particular PC configuration. When matching a replacement, don’t rely on the PC33000F part number alone. Check the amperage, number of poles, voltage, AIC rating, dimensions, trip characteristics, and frame configuration against the equipment already in place. For the right application, the PC33000F provides the familiar form, fit, and function needed to keep compatible legacy electrical equipment in service. It’s a straightforward component built to last in its intended application.

Key Features and Benefits

Material Compliance and Certifications

• Specific material-compliance information and certification listings are not provided in the available specifications for the PC33000F. These details should be confirmed from the unit nameplate, supporting product documentation, and the requirements of the equipment or facility where the breaker will be installed.
• Electrical codes and installation requirements can vary by application and location. A qualified electrical professional should verify suitability and compatibility before the PC33000F is installed or placed into service.

Where It Works Best

• The PC33000F 3000A circuit breaker frame is the most appropriate for existing electrical distribution equipment designed for a Type PC, 3-pole SELTRONIC configuration. It can be used in compatible industrial, manufacturing, and commercial electrical systems where maintenance calls for a replacement with the correct physical and electrical characteristics.
  
• If you’re matching an existing PC33000F, start with the nameplate and the breaker already installed. Compare the 3000A rating, three-pole arrangement, voltage and AIC ratings, 160-cycle specification, dimensions, trip characteristics, and frame-only configuration. That extra check is important. With legacy electrical equipment, a matching part number is helpful, but confirming the complete set of specifications is the better way to determine form, fit, and functional compatibility.
