Eaton CB3033T120480KGR5 Bolted Pressure Contact Switch - UL Listed

High-current capability and fusible protection are inherent strengths of this switch, rated to handle 3000A at 480V with a fusible pathway designed for robust fault isolation. This reduces the number of devices required upstream, simplifies protection schemes, and lowers total ownership costs. In motor control centers and large distribution panels, the CB3033T120480KGR5 delivers dependable, single-point protection for critical loads, improving uptime and system safety across demanding manufacturing environments. Interlock with a capacitor trip device (SPVR) and a 1 NO-1 NC contact configuration deliver fast, predictable trips and safer power-down sequences. The capability to perform charge-before-close helps prevent inrush damage and reduces arcing in high-energy circuits, valuable in drive systems and process lines where reliable sequencing protects expensive motors and reduces maintenance cycles. Top feed and ground-fault protection options simplify wiring and improve fault visibility. With a top-feed configuration and a dedicated ground fault relay option, installers can achieve cleaner cable routing and faster fault diagnosis in challenging installations. A control-power transformer arrangement supports stable control circuits, reducing nuisance trips in environments with fluctuating power quality. UL Listed assurance paired with broad enclosure ratings (NEMA 1, 3R, 4, 12) provides installation flexibility from clean rooms to exposed outdoor panels. The combination supports compliance with safety codes while enabling use in harsh environments, including moisture, dust, and temperature fluctuations. Optional accessories and documented provisions—Ground Fault Relay, Blown Fuse Detection, Auxiliary Contacts, Kirk provisions—enable modular upgrades and future-proofing. These options simplify integration with PLCs and remote diagnostics, ease panel expansion, and help meet regulatory inspection requirements. In retrofit projects, the ability to add protections without replacing the entire switch reduces downtime and total cost of ownership.
