FAQs
CB2033B120480PAXC is designed for bottom-feed wiring and three-wire configurations with fusible protection. When planning installation, verify panel clearance for a 16 in depth, 32 in height, and 24 in width enclosure footprint. Ensure compatibility with 480V feeders, 2000A rating, and the 120V control circuit, minimizing wiring complexity and improving access for maintenance.
The unit incorporates a single-phase voltage relay with a capacitor trip device (Taylor), delivering fast, controlled trips. This reduces nuisance trips during startup while preserving rapid fault clearance. The design supports BFD (no lights) trips and integrates smoothly with optional auxiliary contacts for remote signaling, improving overall reliability and maintenance planning in production environments.
Yes, CB2033B120480PAXC is UL Listed, confirming safety compliance for industrial electrical protection. It carries NEMA ratings of 1, 3R, 4, and 12, ensuring suitability for indoor and outdoor/harsh environments. These certifications support compliance in regulated facilities and ease panel-builder approvals during commissioning.
Optional accessories include Ground Fault Relay, Blown Fuse Detection, and Auxiliary Contact Provisions. Kirk Provisions are also listed as available. These options enable enhanced protection, remote signaling, and expanded control logic without reworking the existing installation, helping you tailor the system to specific safety and automation requirements.
Warranty follows Eaton policy 25-000: one year from installation or eighteen months from shipment, whichever occurs first. For maintenance, inspect connections, verify bottom-feed wiring integrity, and confirm fusible protection remains appropriate for system loads. Regular checks reduce the risk of undetected degradation and extend reliable operation in demanding facilities.
