Description

Built for commercial and industrial power distribution, the FAL22080 provides essential thermal-magnetic protection. This 80-amp, 2-pole molded case circuit breaker is designed for unit mounting in Square D switchboards and control panels. Featuring a 10kAIC interrupting capacity at 240VAC, it utilizes fixed Long-Time and Instantaneous (LI) trip functions to safeguard electrical circuits. For facility upgrades, this legacy F-Frame model crosses over to the newer PowerPacT BDL26080.

Product FAQs

7 answers
Is the Square D FAL22080 still manufactured, or is there a direct replacement?

The FAL22080 is a legacy F-Frame circuit breaker that has been phased out by Schneider Electric. It is superseded by the newer PowerPact B-Frame series, which maintains the same mounting footprint for easy retrofitting in existing control panels.

What type of enclosures and panels are compatible with the FAL22080?

This unit-mount, feed-thru breaker is designed for use in Square D control panels, switchboards, and standalone F-Frame enclosures, such as the FA100X cast aluminum NEMA 7 enclosure.

How is the FAL22080 installed in a panel?

As a unit-mount breaker, it bolts directly to the backpan or mounting plate of a control panel or enclosure using mounting screws. Unlike I-Line breakers, it does not plug directly onto a panelboard busbar.

Is the FAL22080 suitable for direct current (DC) systems?

Yes. While commonly used in 240VAC systems, this breaker is also rated for 250VDC applications. It provides a 5kA interrupting capacity for DC control circuits and industrial equipment.

Are the terminal lugs field-replaceable, and what is the standard lug kit?

Yes, the mechanical lugs can be replaced if damaged. The factory-installed lugs for 35A to 100A F-Frame breakers correspond to the AL100FA lug kit, which accommodates both copper and aluminum conductors.

Can the trip settings on the FAL22080 be adjusted?

No, this breaker features a fixed thermal-magnetic trip unit. Both the long-time overload and instantaneous short-circuit trip thresholds are factory set and cannot be modified in the field.

Does this breaker provide ground fault or arc fault protection?

No, the FAL22080 provides standard thermal-magnetic protection against overloads and short circuits. It does not include GFCI or AFCI circuitry.
