Schneider Electric MAL2680045M8002 Molded Case Circuit Breaker

Schneider Electric’s Square D MAL2680045M8002 Molded Case Circuit Breaker is a two-pole, 800‑amp protective device built for demanding industrial power distributions. Designed for high‑current feeders and motor circuits, this device provides robust overcurrent protection within panelboards and switchgear, and it ships with the MA11021 shunt‑trip accessory for remote, electrically commanded tripping. The MA11021 coil is rated for 120–240 VAC control circuits, enabling a remote signal to trip the breaker quickly in safety interlock and stop‑start applications. With its rugged molded‑case construction and dual‑pole configuration, the MAL2680045M8002 guarantees simultaneous disconnection of both conductors, helping to meet protective and safety requirements in harsh manufacturing environments. This combination supports critical safety workflows, such as emergency shutdown procedures and integrated control‑room monitoring, by enabling rapid isolation of power to machinery. Typical applications include industrial control panels, large‑capacity distribution circuits, and machine feeders where high current, remote trip capability, and reliable protective operation are essential.
