Selling Policy 25-000 - Distribution and Control Products and Services
The 15-meter fiber loop length provides broad sensing coverage along electrical feeders, reducing the need for multiple discrete sensors. In practice, this means fewer wiring points, faster installation, and lower material costs. Plastic fiber sensor construction supports lightweight mounting in crowded switchgear bays and resists corrosion in damp environments. This enables reliable operation in harsh industrial settings with minimal maintenance. 8000 Lux sensitivity ensures robust detection across ambient lighting conditions, reducing false trips while maintaining fast response. That translates to consistent protection even in brightly lit switchgear. UL Recognized and cUL Recognized certifications signal compliance with critical electrical safety standards, easing procurement and integration into existing safety programs. For engineers, this reduces QA review time and accelerates project timelines. Warranty terms offer one year from installation or 18 months from shipment, providing planning certainty and lifecycle cost stability. Compatibility and installation advantages include a compact form factor and support for Eaton protection ecosystems, making integration into existing panels and control systems straightforward.

Yes. The device is UL Recognized and cUL Recognized, aligning with common regulatory requirements for electrical protection equipment. This certification supports procurement workflows, reduces validation effort during audits, and helps ensure compliant arc flash protection within industrial control environments.
Warranty is defined as one year from the date of installation or eighteen months from shipment, whichever comes first. This provides a clear service window for preventive checks, component replacements, and performance verification, supporting predictable maintenance budgeting alongside Eaton’s warranty policy.
Expect faster fault isolation and reduced exposure to arc energy, which translates to lower downtime and safer maintenance windows. The 15 m fiber loop reduces wiring complexity, while 8000 Lux sensitivity improves detection reliability across varied lighting conditions, contributing to lower total cost of ownership and improved panel reliability over time.
