Eaton Specification Sheet - CFSC210-2023
Copper-free aluminum construction provides excellent corrosion resistance and reduced weight, extending service life in harsh environments while lowering maintenance costs for hazardous-location installations. The two-gang through-feed configuration with a 1 inch trade size simplifies wiring and reduces field labor, speeding turnarounds and enhancing overall project efficiency in constrained spaces. A 20A, 125VAC amperage/voltage rating supports common industrial loads, enabling reliable operation for control circuits and equipment power without overdesign. The through-feed style aligns with standard installation practices, improving compatibility with existing power distribution layouts and reducing retrofit complexity. NEC/CEC compliance for Class I Division 1, Class II Division 1, and Class III ratings combined with NEMA 3 and 3R protection delivers regulatory confidence and safer operation in demanding environments like refineries and chemical plants. Outdoor and wash-down areas benefit from the NEMA-rated enclosure, providing weather and ingress protection that minimizes failure points and costly downtime.

The unit is rated at 20A and 125 VAC, suitable for typical control circuits in industrial settings. Certifications include NEC/CEC compliance for hazardous locations with Class I Division 1, Class II Division 1, and Class III ratings, along with NEMA 3 and 3R enclosure protection, ensuring performance in demanding environments.
CFSC210-2023 excels in oil and gas facilities, chemical processing plants, and heavy manufacturing where hazardous/classified locations are present. The two-gang through-feed design accommodates compact layouts, while the copper-free aluminum construction provides resistance to corrosive atmospheres, reducing downtime and maintenance in mission-critical power distribution applications.
Compliance is anchored in NEC/CEC standards for hazardous locations, including NEC Class I Division 1, Class II Division 1, and Class III, with NEMA 3 and 3R enclosure protection. Area classification for hazardous/classified locations is also recognized, helping facilities meet regulatory requirements during audits and inspections.
Benefits include reduced maintenance cycles due to copper-free aluminum's corrosion resistance, longer service life in challenging environments, and faster installation from the through-feed two-gang design. These factors translate to lower total cost of ownership, less downtime, and improved reliability for critical power distribution in hazardous-area facilities.
