Special features
Bolt-on mounting
Feature is a two-pole bolt-on mounting device rated at 70 A with a 120/240 V supply, paired with a 10 kAIC interrupt capability. Business impact is improved protection reliability and faster installation, reducing commissioning time and ongoing maintenance costs in MCCs and distribution panels. Application relevance spans motor feeders, control panels, and industrial power distribution, delivering consistent protection without sacrificing accessibility. Another feature is the Quicklag industrial thermal-magnetic mechanism, which provides accurate overcurrent response to minimize nuisance trips and equipment damage. The business impact is improved uptime and reduced repair costs, particularly in high-startup-current applications such as conveyors and pumps. In addition, HACR rating supports HVAC-related circuits, ensuring compliant protection in climate-controlled environments. Application-wise, the BAB2070 fits standard bolt-on panels, enabling straightforward retrofits and scalable protection strategies across plant-wide electrical systems. Finally, certifications from CSA and UL Listed reinforce compliance, lowering procurement risk and streamlining audits for regulated facilities.

FAQs
The BAB2070 uses bolt-on mounting, which simplifies both initial installation and retrofits in existing panels. It is a two-pole device designed for standard industrial enclosures and can be integrated alongside other protective devices in motor control centers. For retrofit projects, verify panel knockouts, conductor sizing, and torque specifications to ensure a secure, code-compliant installation.
Key specs include 70 A amperage rating, 120/240 V voltage rating, and a 10 kAIC interrupt rating. These parameters define the maximum continuous current the breaker protects against and its ability to safely interrupt fault currents in typical industrial systems. The non-interchangeable trip type ensures the device maintains its designed coordination with upstream protective devices.
Yes. The BAB2070 is HACR rated, meaning it is approved for HVAC circuits without over-sizing protective devices for motors and compressors. This helps maintain safe startup, reduces the risk of nuisance trips in climate control installations, and supports regulatory compliance in commercial and industrial HVAC systems.
The BAB2070 carries CSA Certification and UL Listing. These certifications confirm compliance with North American electrical safety and performance standards, simplifying procurement for regulated facilities and easing customer audits. They also provide assurance of reliable performance under typical industrial operating conditions.
By combining reliable thermal-magnetic protection with bolt-on installation, the BAB2070 reduces commissioning time, minimizes nuisance trips, and lowers maintenance costs. Its compact, two-pole design supports efficient panel layouts, while the 70 A rating aligns with common motor feeders, delivering predictable protection and improved uptime across production lines.
