Eaton CDB-R CDB Cable Limiter - 600 V RoHS Compliant
Part Number: CDB-R
Quick Summary
The Eaton CDB-R cable limiter protects large feeder cables in switchgear and industrial power distribution systems. Engineers often struggle with preventing cable movement and hot spots at terminations in crowded panels. This model meets RoHS compliance, operates at up to 600 V, and is suitable for aluminum 500 kcmil conductors. It is designed for tubular end x offset bolted end connections, ensuring a robust, serviceable wiring solution in tight spaces. In practice, it integrates smoothly with installation workflows and reduces field rewiring time. This translates to lower total cost of ownership for data centres, manufacturing lines, and utility projects. Its compact profile supports dual-lane cable trays, facilitating scalable protection as systems grow.

Eaton Specification Sheet - CDB-R
Feature one is a robust cable limiter geometry that aligns with tubular end x offset bolted end terminations, enabling a precise fit for 1.625 inch assemblies and 500 kcmil aluminum conductors. Business impact includes reduced misalignment, fewer termination vulnerabilities, and faster panel builds in switchgear and distribution boards. Application-wise, this supports reliable, vibration-resistant feeder connections in heavy-duty industrial wiring. Feature two highlights the 600 V voltage rating and RoHS compliance, delivering regulatory alignment and safer operation across harsh environments. This translates to easier regulatory audits and broader material compatibility in utilities and data centers. Feature three notes non-indicating fuse indicator, simplifying status checks and reducing false readings during maintenance. Feature four emphasizes ease of installation with tubular end x offset bolted end connections, accelerating commissioning and minimizing on-site labor. Feature five reinforces compatibility with aluminum 500 kcmil cables, enabling scalable protection as system capacity grows and new feeders are added. In practice, installers appreciate the documented Bussmann series design language and the consistent performance observed across Eaton wiring solutions.

FAQs
To ensure proper compatibility, verify tubular end x offset bolted end connections are clean and aligned, use the specified contact surfaces, and secure the bolted end per Eaton installation guidelines. Confirm the cable size matches 500 kcmil, and orient the limiter to maintain a secure, strain-free path for the conductor. Refer to the official spec sheet for any torque or sequencing requirements.
The CDB-R is rated for 600 V operation and supports 500 kcmil aluminum cable conductors. It is RoHS compliant, ensuring regulatory conformity for restricted substances. These ratings make it suitable for heavy-duty switchgear, MCCs, and distribution panels in industrial environments.
Yes. The CDB-R is RoHS compliant and designed for use in switchgear and related industrial wiring scenarios. Its 600 V rating and aluminum 500 kcmil compatibility align with common switchgear configurations, enabling compliant protection for large feeder cables while meeting environmental requirements.
Benefits include improved cable management, faster installation times due to tubular end x offset bolted end compatibility, and reduced field rework. The non-indicating fuse indicator simplifies status checks, while RoHS compliance supports audits and long-term sustainability goals, collectively reducing downtime and maintenance costs in data centers, manufacturing lines, and utilities.
