Eaton RDF800L-4 Rotary Disconnect - 800A, 600 Vac RoHS
Part Number: RDF800L-4
Quick Summary
RDF800L-4 fused rotary disconnect switch provides reliable isolation for high-current electrical systems in industrial panels. Users often face maintenance delays and safety concerns when disconnects bind or require awkward access. This model offers RoHS compliance and front-handle operation designed for a wide operating range from -20 °C to 70 °C, supporting safer, faster maintenance in harsh environments. While the data shows RoHS compliance, always refer to the datasheet for region-specific certifications as needed. In practice, the RDF800L-4 helps reduce downtime, simplifies wiring and installation in electrical protection architectures, and supports a robust, business-friendly protection strategy for manufacturing and process facilities.

Eaton Specification Sheet - RDF800L-4
Feature → Business Impact → Application: The RDF800L-4 delivers an 800A amperage rating, enabling single-device protection for large feeders and reducing the need for multiple parallel switches in power distribution panels. This lowers lifecycle costs while improving fault isolation speed in high-current circuits used in manufacturing lines. Application: Power distribution gear in heavy machinery, where quick, clean isolation minimizes downtime and supports safe routine maintenance.Feature → Business Impact → Application: Front handle operation enhances operator safety and reduces maintenance time by enabling easy, visible actuation from the front of a cabinet. Application: Control panels in process automation where space is constrained and fast disconnection is critical for servicing and diagnostics.Feature → Business Impact → Application: Dual voltage rating of 600 Vac and 600 Vdc broadens compatibility with mixed AC/DC systems, enabling a single disconnect switch to serve diverse loads. Application: Industrial machinery and switchgear assemblies requiring versatile protection across evolving electrical architectures.Feature → Business Impact → Application: Compact overall footprint (14.5 in L, 12.5 in H, 1 in W) paired with substantial weight (39.2 lb) provides robust mounting in standard enclosures, reducing enclosure redesign and retrofit time. Application: Panel builds and retrofits in metal enclosures where space is at a premium and reliability is essential.Feature → Business Impact → Application: RoHS compliance ensures regulatory alignment and reduced material risks in controlled environments. Application: Environments with stringent material and environmental controls, such as automotive and machinery assembly lines. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Compatibility with Bussmann series fuse protection and standard switchgear interfaces streamlines procurement and reduces integration risk. Application: Systems that require cohesive protection strategies across fuses, switches, and protective devices.

FAQs
RDF800L-4 is designed for standard electrical protection panels with a compact 14.5 in length, 12.5 in height, and 1 in width footprint. It supports front-handle operation for easy integration in cabinets and switchgear assemblies, reducing wiring complexity and mounting depth concerns.
Key specs to confirm are amperage rating (800A), voltage rating (600 Vac, 600 Vdc), and front-access operation. Ensure your panel busbars, bus duct configurations, and fuse protection strategy align with the RDF800L-4’s ratings to maintain safe isolation and reliable operation.
RDF800L-4 is RoHS compliant, supporting restricted-substance requirements in modern electronics. For other region-specific certifications (for example CE or IP ratings), consult the Eaton datasheet and local regulatory guidance to confirm compatibility with your installation standards.
The RDF800L-4 belongs to the Eaton Bussmann fused series, designed to work alongside Bussmann fuses and standard protection schemes in industrial panels. This alignment simplifies procurement, helps ensure consistent performance, and supports streamlined maintenance procedures in protection architectures.
Plan routine inspection of front-handle operation, verify mounting integrity, and confirm electrical connections remain within torque specifications. The device’s high current rating and rugged construction support long service life, reducing downtime and replacement frequency in demanding manufacturing environments.
