Quick Summary

Eaton CDF-W cable limiter protects large feeders in industrial power distribution. It secures and guides high‑capacity cables to prevent movement, arcing, and wear in harsh environments. Engineers and procurement teams often struggle with cable routing in crowded panels and the downtime caused by rework. RoHS compliant and rated for 600 V, its tubular end x offset bolted end connection, together with aluminum construction, supports durable, code‑compliant installations in demanding facilities. By standardizing on this component, you can shorten commissioning, improve safety, and reduce maintenance costs in wire-and-cable assemblies used in wiring and connectivity and electrical distribution networks. This aligns with reliability targets and supports long service life in utilities, data centers, and manufacturing lines.

FAQs

The CDF-W is designed to mate with 750 kcmil aluminum conductors and uses a tubular end with an offset bolted end for a secure, repeatable mechanical interface. To install, align the cable centerline, insert within the limiter housing, and torque bolts to the manufacturer's specification. Ensure enclosure clearance and proper cable routing to minimize stress and movement. This approach streamlines commissioning and reduces rework in crowded switchgear or panel layouts.
CDF-W supports cables sized up to 750 kcmil with aluminum conductor. This makes it suitable for high‑current feeders in industrial power distribution. When selecting, verify conductor material (aluminum) and insulation compatibility with the limiter body, along with enclosure clearances and mounting provisions to ensure a safe, code‑compliant fit.
Yes, the CDF-W is RoHS compliant, meeting modern environmental and safety standards. It is rated for 600 V, which aligns with typical industrial power distribution applications such as switchgear feeders and panel installations. This combination supports regulatory compliance and safe operation in a wide range of facilities.
The CDF-W is widely used in industrial power distribution where large feeders require reliable termination and protection. Typical applications include switchgear installations, control cabinets, data centers, manufacturing lines, and utility distribution panels. Its design emphasizes secure cable terminations, ease of installation in tight spaces, and RoHS compliance for modern facilities.
Using the CDF-W can reduce commissioning time due to its straightforward tubular end x offset bolted end mounting and lighter weight, while lowering maintenance costs by minimizing cable movement and arcing risks. The RoHS compliance supports regulatory alignment, and the durable aluminum construction extends service life in harsh environments, contributing to lower total cost of ownership over the asset’s lifecycle.
