Here is a detailed breakdown of the ABB SACE Megamax F4 4 PR113/D L F low voltage air circuit breaker.
This is a specific model number for a high-performance, legacy air circuit breaker. Let's decode each part of the designation.
Model Number Decoding
Code Segment Meaning Description
SACE ABB Breaker Brand The brand name for ABB's line of low-voltage circuit breakers.
Megamax F Product Series A flagship line of fixed-mount air circuit breakers, now discontinued.
F4 Frame Size This indicates a 2000 Amp frame. This is the physical size and the maximum current the breaker mechanism is designed for.
4 Poles This is a 4-pole breaker (L1, L2, L3, N).
PR113/D Tripping Unit An advanced electronic trip unit with a Digital display (often referred to as DPI - Digital Primary Indicator). This was the high-end unit for the Megamax F series.
L Breaking Capacity "L" stands for the Highest breaking capacity available for this series. For Megamax F, this could be 150 kA at 415V AC.
F Mounting Style Fixed mounting. The breaker is bolted directly to the busbars and cannot be withdrawn.
Summary of Specifications

Rated Current (Iu): Up to 2000 A (The actual set value is adjusted on the PR113 trip unit)
Poles: 4
Breaking Capacity (Icu): L - Extremely High (up to 150 kA)
Trip Unit: PR113/D - Advanced electronic unit with digital display for current, voltage, power measurements, and detailed fault logging.
Protection Functions: Comprehensive protection including Long-time (L), Short-time (S), Instantaneous (I), and Ground-Fault (G) protection.

Critical Information: Status and Replacement
1. This Product is OBSOLETE.
The ABB SACE Megamax F series has been out of production for many years. It was succeeded by the SACE Emax and later the SACE Emax 2 series.
2. Direct Modern Replacement:
The official and direct replacement for this breaker is the ABB SACE Emax 2 series.
An equivalent modern model would be similar to:
SACE E2.2 L 2000 Ekip G HI LSIG
E2.2: Emax 2, frame size for 2000A.
L: Comparable high breaking capacity.
Ekip G HI: The modern, sophisticated digital trip unit that replaces the PR113. The "HI" version offers a high-resolution display and advanced communication and monitoring features, surpassing the capabilities of the PR113.
