FAQs
Installation should begin with verifying enclosure suitability for Class I/II environments and ensuring a compatible footprint with the 150A frame. Use the bolted/ground joint/gasketed cover configuration to seal against dust and moisture. Follow the provided IF installation sheets for motor control and line-side connections, and consult SP3D design packages for accurate layout modeling.
Key specs include a 600 Vac voltage rating, three-pole configuration, and an amperage range of 10 A through 70 A within a 150A frame. The frame type is FDB, and the enclosure is copper-free aluminum with a bolted/ground joint/gasketed cover. These specs support reliable protection for three-phase feeders in hazardous locations.
Yes. The EBMB series provides area classification for Hazardous/Classified Locations and supports NEC/CEC compliance, along with UL certifications. This makes it appropriate for installations in Class I Division 1 and 2, Class II Division 1 and 2, and Class III environments, subject to project-specific approvals.
The WT15FDB36 carries NEC/CEC compliance and UL certification, with hazardous location approvals. It is designed for hazardous-area service and is listed for a wide range of NEMA configurations, including protection in Class I/II/III environments, ensuring regulatory alignment for industrial facilities.
