FAQs
To install the CDB-OV, begin by validating panel clearances and ensuring compatibility with Bussmann series components. Mount the limiter in the designated wiring run, connect per the enclosure's wiring diagram, and secure with standard hardware. Verify insulation integrity and perform a functional test under controlled conditions. This approach minimizes downtime and supports consistent protective coverage across critical cables.
Key identifiers include Catalog Number: CDB-OV and UPC: 051712139915. The product weighs 0.1 lb and presents a compact footprint (0.001 in depth/height/width). While the data sheet focuses on general specifications, users should validate installation parameters with their system integrator and align with local electrical standards for reliable overload protection in control panels.
Yes. The CDB-OV is designed to protect cables inside electrical enclosures and control panels, helping prevent insulation damage and nuisance faults that can halt production. It fits within Wiring & Connectivity strategies for industrial automation, enabling consistent protection across lines and reducing unplanned downtime during line transitions or upgrades.
This dataset lists Not Applicable for Warranty and Compliances, so verify local and end-customer requirements for CE, IP ratings, and other certifications as part of your project spec. In practice, consult Eaton's datasheet and your authority having jurisdiction to confirm which standards apply to your installation and ensure alignment with your safety and performance requirements.
The primary ROI stems from reduced downtime and maintenance costs due to improved overcurrent protection for cables in panels. By preventing cable-related faults, facilities can realize faster assembly, lower repair frequency, and longer service intervals. This aligns with procurement goals of reliable, serviceable wiring components within industrial automation environments.
