Eaton Specification Sheet - EDS2230
Rugged enclosure materials deliver longer life in harsh environments. The Feraloy iron alloy enclosure resists impact, heat, and corrosion, reducing field repairs and downtime in continuous-operation lines. This is ideal for chemical plants, mining sites, and oil-and-gas facilities where rugged control stations keep critical processes running. Integrated enclosure design combines two gangs and three-pole functionality with a single 3/4\" hub. Business impact: simplifies wiring routes, lowers installation time, and improves fault isolation. Application: panel builders can pre-assemble and ship ready-to-install stations. The unit supports 120-277V and a 20A rating, delivering reliable power delivery and compatibility across common industrial systems. With dead-end style wiring and two pushbuttons, technicians benefit from straightforward maintenance and reduced commissioning time. Compliance and installation support, including NEC/CEC alignment and NEMA 3, 7, 9 compatibility, reduce risk during audits and upgrades. Installation resources like IF328 instruction sheets and Eaton’s specification sheets aid fast, correct deployments in two-gang device bodies.
