Eaton Specification Sheet - DSD948 J1 SA
Copper-free aluminum construction with factory sealing provides robust corrosion resistance in aggressive environments, extending service life and reducing replacement cycles. This translates to lower maintenance costs and fewer unscheduled outages in chemical plants, offshore platforms, and mining sites. The compact, low-profile sub-assembly simplifies retrofits and new installs, enabling faster commissioning and reduced panel downtime. Compatibility with the DSD cover family and the IF 1424 replacement guidance supports straightforward installation and minimizes field wiring errors. The red pilot light cover enhances visual signaling for quick status assessment, while NEC/CEC compliance and NEMA ratings deliver audit-ready safety and environmental protection. A factory-sealed design reduces dust and moisture ingress, sustaining reliable signaling in dusty or humid areas. Comprehensive documentation streamlines procurement and installation for engineering teams, ensuring consistent performance across locations.
