Eaton Specification Sheet - BKG2M100
Feature → Business Impact → Application: The BKG2M100 uses a convertible MCB kit design (CONV MCB KIT) that simplifies upgrades or retrofits, reducing field rework and enabling a seamless transition from older breakers to Pow-R-Xpress solutions in existing panels. This translates to shorter commissioning times and lower labor costs on site, ideal for panelboard modernization projects in manufacturing lines and distribution cabinets. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Rated at 100A with a rated operational current of 150A, the kit provides robust protection while accommodating short-duration overloads, helping prevent nuisance trips and improving process uptime in critical automation loops. This is particularly valuable in assembly lines and packaging operations where consistent power quality matters. Feature → Business Impact → Application: UL 67 certification and NEMA compliance give you confidence in safety and regulatory alignment, reducing risk during audits and facilitating installation in compliant facilities. This supports aerospace, automotive, and general industrial environments where safety certifications matter. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Compact dimensions (6 in L × 4 in W × 3 in H) and a light 5 lb weight enable easier handling, faster mounting, and reduced cabinet footprint, which is beneficial in crowded control panels and retrofit enclosures. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Compatibility with both single-phase and three-phase systems broadens applicability across mixed-power facilities, from small machine aggregations to larger PLC-driven panels, ensuring you don’t buy multiple SKUs for varied sections. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Part of the Pow-R-stock series and the Eaton Pow-R-Xpress stocking program, this kit improves uptime with ready-to-ship stock and predictable lead times, reducing project delays and inventory carrying costs across multiple sites.
