FAQs
The BAB3050N uses bolt-on mounting designed for three-pole installations in standard electrical panels. To install, align with the panel’s mounting provisions, secure with appropriate bolts, and connect the three phase lines to the correct terminals per the schematic. Verify the unit is rated for 240 V and that the panel can accommodate a 50 A, 10 kAIC device. Always follow lockout/tagout procedures and manufacturer torque recommendations for secure connection and safe operation.
The device is rated for 50 A, 240 V with a 10 kAIC interrupt rating, supporting high fault current scenarios typical of industrial feeders. The three-pole design provides balanced protection across phases, while the non-interchangeable trip type ensures consistent protection characteristics. These specs help protect motors and control circuits from overcurrent, reducing the risk of catastrophic damage and downtime.
Yes. The BAB3050N is HACR rated, UL Listed, and CSA Certified, making it suitable for motor control centers and HVAC-related loads in industrial environments. Its 50 A rating at 240 V with a 10 kAIC interrupt capacity provides robust short-circuit protection for motor feeders, compressors, and other high inrush loads common in MCCs and HVAC panels.
The BAB3050N carries UL Listed and CSA Certified markings, plus HACR rating for HVAC applications. These certifications support compliance with US and Canadian electrical codes, enhance supplier and installer confidence, and streamline procurement for regulated facilities. Certification signals adherence to recognized safety and performance standards, reducing qualification risk on projects.
The unit carries a 1-year warranty, with typical low-maintenance operation given its solid mechanical design and thermal-magnetic trip mechanism. ROI benefits come from reduced downtime due to fast fault clearance, lower repair costs from late-stage failure protection, and easier retrofits thanks to bolt-on mounting. The device’s reliability helps maintain consistent production output and protects critical loads in automation and process lines.
