Eaton Specification Sheet - EDS3129
The 20A, 120-277V rating enables direct control of common industrial loads with minimal wiring, delivering a straightforward hookup that reduces installation time and potential faults. This translates to lower commissioning costs and improved equipment uptime in hazardous environments where reliability matters most. The factory-sealed enclosure protects internal components from dust, moisture, and corrosive atmospheres, significantly reducing maintenance cycles and extending service life; ideal for chemical plants, refineries, and mining operations. The single-gang, single-pole form factor with a 1" hub simplifies panel layout and conduit routing, enabling faster retrofits and easier field wiring for technicians working in tight spaces. The Feraloy iron alloy enclosure provides robust mechanical strength and corrosion resistance, ensuring long-term performance in demanding sites, while meeting NEC/CEC requirements and NEMA 3, 7, 9 ratings for safe operation. This combination minimizes equipment refresh frequency and supports scalable automation strategies.
