Quick Summary

Eaton CB1233T120480PAX7C is a bolted pressure contact switch used to safeguard three‑phase motor circuits. Engineers often contend with nuisance trips, complex wiring, and space constraints in large control panels. UL Listed certification supports safety compliance in industrial environments. NEMA ratings for 1, 3R, 4, and 12 enable reliable operation in demanding enclosures, and the device supports 480V system voltage. With a 120V control circuit and top‑feed, three‑pole configuration, it delivers reliable protection while simplifying installation and maintenance for plant operations. This translates to faster commissioning, reduced downtime, and lower total cost of ownership, especially in high‑current, top‑feed layouts common in manufacturing plants.

High-current capability meets demanding motor protection: CB1233T120480PAX7C is rated for 1200A at 480V with a 120V control circuit, enabling direct switching of large motors without paralleling devices. The three-pole, three-wire arrangement simplifies wiring schemes and reduces panel footprint, while the top-feed configuration streamlines installation in enclosed switchgear. In practical terms, engineers gain fewer components to source and fewer field connections to miswire, translating into faster commissioning and lower installation risk. Flexible contact configuration supports both control circuits and protection paths: 2 NO-2 NC contacts provide versatile interlock and signaling options. This flexibility helps align with existing control logic and remote monitoring, decreasing retrofit complexity. The combination improves coordination with upstream breakers and ensures reliable shutdown under fault conditions. Capacitor trip device (Taylor) with BFD (no lights) delivers precise protection and minimizes nuisance indicators while trips still occur as required. The fusible protection adds a tailored overcurrent layer to plant protection schemes, reducing maintenance and component count. Rugged, top-fed construction supports harsh environments: UL Listed and NEMA 1, 3R, 4, 12 ratings enable operation in dusty, damp, and outdoor-adjacent installations. Plan for space in large control rooms given dimensions of 16 in depth, 24 in width, 28 in height, and 180 lb weight. Catalog notes offer optional Ground Fault Relay, Blown Fuse Detection, and Auxiliary Contacts, enabling expanded protection and status monitoring without replacing the core device. This compatibility supports scalable protection schemes and future-proofing for plant upgrades. The combination of protection, control flexibility, and proven Eaton engineering translates to faster procurement decisions and improved project ROI.
