Amperage Rating
15 A
15 A amperage rating is a key feature. This precise protection minimizes electrical faults by interrupting current before damage occurs, improving system reliability in automotive circuits. It is well-suited for vehicle harnesses and control circuits where stable performance is required. Compact footprint with dimensions of 14.75 in length, 9.25 in width, and 7.5 in height. The reduced enclosure footprint enables easier integration into standard automotive panels and mounting frames, lowering installation time and space constraints in dashboards or chassis enclosures. Use this in space-constrained installations where wiring density and panel real estate are critical. 0.5 lb weight is a notable feature. This lightweight design reduces overall assembly weight and minimizes mounting hardware requirements, contributing to better vehicle fuel economy and easier retrofits. Suitable for weight-sensitive platforms like mobile equipment, trailers, and compact control panels. RoHS compliance is a key feature. This ensures regulatory alignment and supports sustainability initiatives in automotive manufacturing by limiting hazardous substances. It plugs into OEM supply chains that require RoHS for electrical components and helps simplify end-of-life recycling. Catalog Number CBS-15 and UPC 051712139564 provide traceability. Clear cataloging improves procurement and inventory control. Streamlined BOM management and digital scanning with the UPC speed stocking, reorder cycles, and after-sales support. Downloads and spec sheets are readily available. Access to Eaton's specification sheet and planograms enhances design validation and installation planning.
