Special features
Bolt-on mounting
Bolt-on mounting enables fast, secure installation in panel assemblies, reducing labor time and mechanical complexity while improving reliability in crowded control panels. This translates into faster commissioning and easier field updates for growing automation lines, particularly in food & beverage, packaging, and process industries. The three-pole design provides synchronized protection for three-phase motors and loads, ensuring balanced protection across phases and minimizing nuisance faults in pump and compressor circuits. With a 10 kAIC interrupt rating, the breaker offers robust short-circuit protection, lowering arc energy exposure and protecting downstream equipment in high-demand applications. The 50°C calibration capability ensures stable trip characteristics in warm environments common to industrial plants, HVAC rooms, and outdoor enclosures, preserving selectivity and safety margins. UL Listed and CSA Certified, along with HACR rating, reinforce compliance for commercial and industrial installations while simplifying regulatory acceptance. The ring or spade lug terminals give wiring flexibility across a range of conductor sizes, enabling quick field termination and reducing wiring errors. The Quicklag industrial design supports consistent replacement and service procedures, improving maintenance predictability and spare parts planning. Non-Interchangeable trip mechanisms simplify device cataloging and lifecycle management, avoiding cross-trip issues in multi-breaker panels. Overall, the BAB3020HT delivers a compact, dependable protection device that supports faster installation, reliable operation, and long-term maintenance efficiency in demanding environments.
