Eaton CVS2225Y Molded Case Circuit Breaker - 42 kAIC

Feature: 225 A rating with a 42 kAIC interrupt rating on a two-pole CV molded case breaker. Business Impact: This combination delivers robust short-circuit protection, minimizes nuisance trips, helps prevent equipment damage, and reduces unplanned downtime across critical production lines. Application: Use as the main protective device in CV frame panels, motor control centers, and distribution boards across manufacturing and data-center environments, with straightforward field replacement and predictable trip curves. Feature: Wire and terminal compatibility — supports #6-4/0 AWG Cu/Al and #4/0 kcmil maximum line, enabling flexible feeder configurations. Business Impact: Simplifies field wiring, reduces labor time, ensures secure, code-compliant terminations that preserve conductor integrity and enable faster commissioning. Application: Ideal for heavy feeders and service entrances in industrial panels and load centers requiring large conductor runs, frequently deployed in OEM builds and retrofits. Feature: Compact footprint and weight — 7.5 in depth, 5 in height, 3.5 in width; 2.75 lb, enabling easier handling and space optimization in crowded switchgear. Business Impact: Enables installation in tight panels, reduces panel density, lowers shipping costs, and simplifies on-site logistics during upgrades. Application: Suitable for retrofit projects and new builds in spaces where clearance, enclosure footprint, and mounting orientation are critical considerations. Feature: Certifications and warranty — UL 489, CSA Std. C22.2 No. 5 listings; Limited lifetime warranty supports long-term reliability. Business Impact: Ensures regulatory compliance, predictable performance, and lower lifecycle risk through proven protection and long-term support, reducing spare-part inventories. Application: Appropriate for OEM builds and service contracts in manufacturing, data centers, and critical infrastructure demanding durable protection and straightforward commissioning. Feature: Catalog integration and compatibility — Catalog Number CVS2225Y with CV frame interoperability and documented mounting dimensions for plan reviews. Business Impact: Streamlines procurement, improves interchangeability across Eaton components, reduces downtime during upgrades, and accelerates project delivery. Application: Ideal for new plant installations or retrofit programs in industrial facilities and data centers seeking consistent protection and scalable expansion.
