Eaton Specification Sheet - 15100-401
Feature → Business Impact → Application: Panel-mount design with compact 6.75 in length, 7 in height, and 4 in width optimizes space in crowded control panels, reducing installation time and wiring complexity for electrical protection in machine controls. The 60 V DC rating and 70-400 A amperage range enable flexible protection for diverse DC loads, improving reliability and reducing unplanned outages in power distribution and automation systems. RoHS compliance and CE marking provide regulatory assurance, reducing sourcing risk and simplifying compliance documentation for OEMs and integrators. The fusible mechanism of the 1500 series supports predictable fault clearance and safer shutdown sequences, contributing to safer commissioning and maintenance workflows. With panel mounting, wiring access is straightforward, facilitating faster field service and in-situ fuse replacements, lowering total cost of ownership for control panels. Industry context indicates these features translate to measurable efficiency gains in automotive, packaging, and process automation environments.
