FAQs
CVS2090 is designed specifically for CV frame systems, ensuring straightforward insertion into compatible Eaton load centers. It uses standard #6-4/0 kcmil Cu/Al terminations and two-pole configuration, which simplifies retrofits and new installations alike. When wiring, confirm copper or aluminum conductors are within the listed range and follow the panel manufacturer’s torque specifications to maintain protective and coordination performance.
The CVS2090 provides a 90 A current rating and a 42 kAIC interrupt rating, with a two-pole configuration in a CV frame. Terminals accommodate #6-4/0 kcmil Cu/Al conductors, supporting Cu/Al wiring. This combination enables reliable protection for mid-sized feeders and ensures compatibility with standard low-voltage distribution schemes.
Yes. The CVS2090 offers a high interrupt rating, compact footprint, and proven UL 489/CSA compliance, making it suitable for data center load centers where reliable fault interruption and space efficiency are critical. Its two-pole design optimizes protection for essential feeder circuits while easing installation and future expansion in dense rack environments.
CVS2090 is listed to UL 489 and CSA Std. C22.2 No. 5, underscoring compliance with essential electrical safety and performance requirements. Meeting these standards helps ensure safe installation, code compliance for building systems, and eligibility for use in regulated environments such as commercial facilities and industrial sites.
The limited lifetime warranty reduces long-term ownership risk by covering product performance over the breaker’s life. This translates to lower replacement and maintenance costs, fewer unexpected outages, and greater peace of mind for facility managers. When paired with high interrupt reliability, CVS2090 supports a lower total cost of ownership across multiple projects.
