Eaton 15800-R-301 Fuse Disconnect Switch - 60 V DC
Part Number: 15800-R-301
Quick Summary
The Eaton 15800-R-301 fuse disconnect switch provides safe DC isolation for industrial control panels. This device helps maintenance staff prevent accidental energization and arc events, reducing downtime and safety risk during servicing. While the datasheet lists voltage and current ratings of 60 V DC and 3–70 A, it does not show standard certifications like SIL, CE, or IP; verify with Eaton to meet your regulatory requirements. Panel mounting with included hardware simplifies installation and minimizes field labor, delivering faster changes and consistent mounting. In practice, engineers value a compact, panel-ready solution that integrates with line terminals and existing Bussmann series components, enabling scalable DC protection across multiple control circuits.
