Delivering 30 amps of thermal-magnetic protection, this PowerPacT H-Frame breaker safeguards critical industrial circuits against overloads and short circuits. The fixed LI trip unit is optimized for reliable commercial power distribution. Equipped with factory lugs, the unit-mount chassis integrates easily into modern switchboards and enclosures. It acts as the electrical successor to discontinued FAL22030 and FAL24030 components. A 25kAIC rating at 240VAC ensures robust fault interruption.
Can the HDL26030 replace older Square D F-frame breakers?
Yes, the PowerPacT H-frame series is the modern replacement for legacy F-frame breakers like the FAL22030 and FAL24030. Because physical dimensions and mounting footprints differ, you may need to verify panel space and mounting hardware when retrofitting.
What does the "D" in the HDL26030 catalog number mean?
In the Square D PowerPacT nomenclature, the "D" designates the specific interrupting capacity tier. For this breaker, it signifies a D-interrupting level, which delivers 25kA at 240VAC and 18kA at 480VAC. Higher tiers like G or J offer greater fault current ratings.
Can I install the HDL26030 in an I-Line panelboard?
No. The "L" in the HDL prefix indicates this is a unit-mount breaker with lugs on both the line and load sides. For an I-Line panelboard, you would need the I-Line version, catalog number HDA26030.
What enclosures and panels are compatible with the HDL26030?
This unit-mount breaker is designed for use in industrial control panels, switchboards, and dedicated PowerPacT H-Frame enclosures.
What type of trip unit is included in the HDL26030?
It features a fixed thermal-magnetic trip unit with Long-Time (L) and Instantaneous (I) protection functions. It does not have adjustable trip settings or MicroLogic electronic trip capabilities.
Is the HDL26030 rated for DC applications?
Yes, this breaker is rated for up to 250VDC with a 20kA interrupting capacity, making it suitable for specific direct current control and distribution systems.
