Copper-free aluminum enclosure provides corrosion resistance in chemical, marine, and outdoor environments, extending service life and reducing maintenance cycles. This translates to lower lifecycle costs and higher uptime for critical processes such as reactors and material handling in hazardous areas. Two single-pole breakers deliver dedicated fault protection per circuit with a 30 mA ground fault trip. This precise protection limits arc faults and enables rapid isolation, minimizing unplanned outages in conveyors and pumps. 120 VAC operation aligns with standard control power supplies and wiring practices, enabling easy integration with existing MCCs and control panels. Certified for Hazardous/Classified Locations and NEC/CEC compliance ensures safe operation in Class I/II environments, meeting safety compliance requirements for refineries, mining, and chemical processing. NEMA ratings 12, 3, 7, and 9 provide protection against dust, water, and harsh conditions, allowing installation in washdown areas and dusty environments. Comprehensive installation instructions, UL certifications, and catalog pages expedite procurement, testing, and regulatory audits, helping teams stay on schedule and within budget.
