Eaton HCUNTOPKIT01 HCU2 Active Harmonic Correction Unit - Top Hood
Part Number: HCUNTOPKIT01
Quick Summary
The Eaton HCUNTOPKIT01 HCU2 active harmonic correction unit mitigates harmonic distortion in industrial power systems. This solution targets harmonics that stress drives, degrade power quality, and increase energy costs during peak loads. Certifications commonly considered for these systems include SIL, CE, and IP ratings, though the provided data sheet does not specify these; verify applicable standards for your installation. The top hood kit design supports straightforward retrofit in crowded panels, while the compact 17.5 in width by 13.6 in height by 10.43 in depth footprint simplifies installation. With clear cataloging and UPC, procurement and supplier alignment are streamlined, enabling reliable performance and measurable power quality improvements.
