FAQs

For hazardous locations, install the FLB221 TT15 2 in a compliant enclosure with suitable ingress protection. The threaded cover design facilitates a secure seal, while the copper-free aluminum housing resists corrosion. Ensure mounting to standard 1" trade size spaces and verify NEC/CEC classification for the specific Class/Division rating in your facility.
Thermal-magnetic trip curves provide both overload and short-circuit protection, delivering fast response to high fault currents while avoiding nuisance trips during normal startup. This improves downtime reliability for motors and control circuits, particularly in environments with temperature swings or brief surges common in industrial facilities.
Yes. The unit is listed for NEC/CEC standards and offers Class I, Division 1 and 2, Class II, Division 1 and 2, and Class III hazardous ratings, along with NEMA 3, 4, 7, 9 compatibility. This alignment supports compliant design and documentation for US and Canadian projects, reducing the need for additional certifications.
Key certifications include NEC/CEC compliance and hazardous-location ratings, plus UL Canadian certification references in product literature. The unit’s construction supports use in Class I/II/III environments and is suitable for areas requiring explosionproof protection, helping streamline cross-border procurement and audit readiness.
Benefits include reduced downtime due to reliable thermal-magnetic protection, longer service life from a copper-free enclosure, and tamper-resistant non-interchangeable trips that preserve designed protections. Combined with Eaton’s support network and standard mounting, this translates to lower maintenance costs, fewer replacement parts, and improved asset uptime in hazardous-location applications.
