With precise electrical ratings and a compact 9" profile, it helps keep critical motor circuits protected without compromising cabinet space.

Key specifications and differentiators

• Configuration: Breaker MCC Bucket designed for Siemens 8PX MCC systems, ensuring plug-and-play compatibility.
• Electrical rating: 40 A, 208 V, 3-Pole configuration delivers robust protection for motor circuits in standard 208V industrial environments.
• Physical footprint: 9" height accommodates common space constraints within motor control centers while preserving ease of access for maintenance.
• Replacement type: Direct OEM replacement for existing Siemens 8PX installations and retrofits, reducing installation risk and downtime.
• Quality assurance: Supplied by AmpState, a trusted source of MCC components with a focus on consistency, availability, and field-ready performance.

Why this matters for your operation

In motor control centers, a compatible breaker bucket is more than a part—it’s a critical link in safeguarding motors, drives, and associated equipment. This Siemens 8PX MCC bucket delivers:

• Reliable protection for motor loads: The 40 A rating is chosen to balance protection with operational continuity, helping prevent nuisance trips while still offering robust short-circuit defense.
• Seamless integration: Matching the Siemens 8PX form factor means faster installs, fewer alignment concerns, and less cabinet modification—so maintenance windows stay tight.
• Versatile retrofit capability: Ideal for upgrading aging MCC hardware or replacing failed components without reconfiguring the entire cabinet.
• Global delivery and support: AmpState’s worldwide logistics ensure parts are accessible where you operate, minimizing procurement delays.

Ideal use cases

• Manufacturing lines or process plants that run on 208 V with three-phase motors requiring dependable protection and quick spare-part replacement.
• Retrofit projects where upgrading an existing Siemens 8PX MCC to current specifications would otherwise demand extensive cabinet amendments.
• Maintenance shut-downs where stocking a compatible MCC bucket reduces lead times and accelerates return-to-service.
• Facilities looking to standardize spare parts across multiple sites for easier inventory management and faster repairs.

Compatibility and installation notes

This bucket is explicitly designed for Siemens 8PX MCC systems and serves as a direct replacement for OEM components in compatible configurations. Before installation, confirm that your cabinet’s 3-Pole breaker arrangement, 208 V supply, and overall MCC layout align with the 9" height specification. Follow standard electrical safety practices during replacement to minimize exposure to live components and ensure proper torque on mounting hardware for reliable seating and electrical contact. If you’re refreshing an aging MCC, this unit offers a straightforward path to restore rated protection without the complexity of a full cabinet rebuild.
