The 1221V provides 20A at 120/277V, delivering reliable power switching for a wide range of industrial loads, which translates to fewer nuisance trips and improved control reliability in control panels. This translates to measurable downtime reductions and safer, more predictable equipment operation in manufacturing lines. The back-and-side wiring option with screw terminals simplifies field connections, reduces installation time, and minimizes wiring errors, which accelerates commissioning and serviceability in rugged environments. Flush mounting combined with an ivory polycarbonate housing and brass terminal enclosure saves panel space, improves visibility, and enhances durability against vibration and dust in harsh plants. UL/cULus Listed and NOM certifications support compliance with North American and international standards, enabling faster project approvals and smoother cross-border procurement. A 14 lbf-in torque rating ensures consistent actuation force for dependable operation, while the single-pole configuration matches many standard control circuits, reducing part variants and stocking complexity. The compact dimensions (1.31 in depth, 0.88 in width) and compatible wire range (#14-10 AWG) enable flexible installation in a variety of panel sizes and enclosure types, keeping installations neat and code compliant.
