Feature → Business Impact → Application: The N2RS1003 delivers a 100A amperage rating in a three-pole, non-fused configuration, enabling reliable motor control for motors up to 60 HP at 240–600 Vac. This reduces fuse changes, simplifies wiring, and lowers switch maintenance costs while supporting smooth starts in demanding industrial lines. Application: ideal for conveyors, pumps, and fans in manufacturing lines where uptime is critical. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Krydon fiberglass-reinforced polyester enclosure provides excellent chemical and impact resistance, improving long-term durability in dirty, wet, or corrosive environments. This minimizes enclosure replacements and protects sensitive circuitry. Application: suitable for chemical, food processing, and water treatment facilities with stringent cleanliness and safety requirements. Feature → Business Impact → Application: The NEMA ratings 3, 4X, 7, 12 and NEC/CEC compliance offer robust protection in hazardous and harsh environments, reducing wiring errors and enabling safer maintenance. Application: use in Class I, Division 2 locations and other challenging sites. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Factory sealed motor circuit switch design simplifies installation and reduces ingress risk, shortening commissioning times and improving overall project ROI. Application: convenient for retrofit projects and new builds in industrial plants. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Three-phase configuration and non-fused design align with common plant motor control schemes, enabling straightforward integration with existing MCCs and VFDs. Application: suitable for 20/40/60 HP motors in multi-motor drives. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Krydon material supports broad operating temperatures and UV exposure, extending service life in outdoor or demanding indoor spaces. Application: outdoor substations or exposed mechanical rooms where enclosure integrity matters.
