Siemens 8PX2 Breaker MCC Bucket — 100 A, 240 V, 3-Pole, 12" Height

Designed for demanding industrial motor control centers, the Siemens 8PX2 Breaker MCC Bucket delivers precise 100 A, 240 V, 3-Pole switching in a compact 12" tall module. This OEM replacement and retrofit‑ready component fits seamlessly into existing Siemens 8PX2 MCC lineups, enabling maintenance, upgrades, or lifecycle extension without disruptive rewiring.

Key Specifications & Features

• Brand: Siemens
• Series: 8PX2
• Configuration: Breaker MCC Bucket
• Electrical Rating: 100 A, 240 V, 3-Pole
• Bucket Height: 12 inches
• Applications: OEM replacement and retrofit for Siemens MCC systems

Operational Benefits

This MCC bucket delivers reliable, factory‑aligned performance that preserves the protective coordination and trip characteristics of your motor control center. The 3‑pole configuration is well-suited for three‑phase loads typical in pumps, conveyors, fans, and automated processes. The 12" bucket height minimizes cabinet footprint while ensuring full compatibility with standard Siemens 8PX2 layouts.

Why This Breaker MCC Bucket Stands Out

• Exact fit for Siemens 8PX2 systems: Maintains precise alignment with original bus bars, mounting points, and interlocks to reduce installation time and risk.
• OEM-grade reliability: Siemens‑engineered to the 8PX2 specification, preserving electrical performance, protection coordination, and long‑term service life.
• Retrofit-friendly: An ideal choice for spare‑part stock, planned replacements, and modernization projects that require minimal downtime.
• Global availability through AmpState: Access trusted Siemens MCC components with worldwide shipping and knowledgeable support.

Ideal Use Scenarios

Suitable for industrial environments such as manufacturing lines, packaging facilities, chemical plants, and HVAC/compression systems where Siemens 8PX2 MCC buckets are specified. It’s an excellent option for OEM replacements during panel upgrades or for agencies maintaining large fleets of Siemens MCC equipment that demand authentic parts.

Practical Tips for Installation and Performance

• Confirm compatibility with your exact 8PX2 bucket configuration and panel layout prior to installation.
• Coordinate replacement with adjacent MCC components to maintain uniform protection and seamless operation across the drive system.
• Store and handle the bucket in a clean, dry environment to prevent corrosion or contamination of contact surfaces.
