Eaton Specification Sheet - CB1234T120480C7
High current capability: The CB1234T120480C7 is engineered for 1200A at 480V in a three-phase, three-wire system, delivering consistent response under heavy load. This rating minimizes contact wear and voltage drop, reducing maintenance intervals in demanding applications such as metal stamping lines, large conveyors, and heavy machinery feeders. In switchgear and MCCs it provides dependable interrupting and stable interlock performance, helping operators meet uptime targets while maintaining precise control. Top-feed bolted construction: The bolted pressure contact design with top-feed wiring provides a secure, vibration-resistant connection in harsh environments and equipment prone to shocks. This simplifies installation, minimizes field re-termination risk, and supports compact or recessed panels. The robust interface also improves long-term reliability by reducing marginal contact issues. Flexible contact configuration: With 2 normally-open and 2 normally-closed contacts, CB1234T120480C7 supports interlocking schemes, status signaling, and safety interlocks. This flexibility enables safer control logic for motors, pumps, and hydraulic circuits, while allowing straightforward integration with PLCs and safety relays. It also helps prevent accidental restarts after trips, boosting compliance in manufacturing lines. ArcRed/GF Relay-CT protection: Integrated arc energy mitigation reduces energy release during switching events, safeguarding personnel and downstream equipment. This is valuable for 480V feeders and motor control centers, improving inspector-facing safety metrics and extending component life. The combination of arc management with high-current switching supports safer maintenance windows and shorter downtime. UL Listed certification and rugged build: UL Listed status supports compliance with essential safety standards for electrical switching components. With dimensions of 16 in length, 24 in width, and 28 in height and a 180 lb weight, the unit suits large enclosures and standard Eaton switchgear footprints, helping procurement and installation teams avoid compatibility issues. Compatibility and lifecycle value: Designed to integrate with Eaton switchgear ecosystems, CB1234T120480C7 streamlines installation, maintenance planning, and spare parts strategy, delivering lower total cost of ownership over the lifecycle of the system. It is well suited for retrofit and new-build programs across multiple lines, helping engineers standardize on a single high-current solution.
