Eaton Specification Sheet - DCG3061FXM
Selling Policy 25-000 - Distribution and Control Products and Services
Feature → Business Impact → Application: The DCG3061FXM is a three-pole, fusible DC disconnect that provides isolated return and grounded operation, improving electrical safety and minimizing fault propagation. This translates to faster troubleshooting, lower risk of arc flash incidents, and improved conformity with NEC 690 requirements in utility-scale and commercial PV installations. Application: Solar DC photovoltaic systems requiring reliable, code-compliant isolation points at the array or inverter interface. Feature → Business Impact → Application: The 316 stainless steel enclosure with a NEMA 4X rating delivers corrosion resistance and outdoor durability, extending service life in rooftop, ground-mounted, and marine-adjacent environments. Application: Outdoor PV enclosures and industrial outdoor electrical rooms where harsh weather and washdown exposure are common. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Wiring flexibility supports In/Out(LC) #2-#14 AWG and In/Out(SR) 1/0-#14 AWG, enabling versatile string and control wiring without extensive field modifications. Application: Field-installed DC disconnects adjacent to solar arrays and power electronics. Feature → Business Impact → Application: 600 VDC system voltage capability and 30 A amperage rating enable safe operation with common PV strings and inverters, reducing the need for intermediate equipment and simplifying configuration. Application: Systems targeting higher voltage PV architectures and multi-string configurations. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Fusible protection and isolated return improve protection coordination and ease of maintenance, resulting in lower life-cycle costs. Application: Periodic maintenance and subsystem isolation in solar plants. This device is designed for compatibility with standard LC and SR wiring configurations and supports quick replacement with minimal downtime.
