High interrupt capability of 100 kAIC provides resilience against extreme transients, limiting damage to sensitive loads and downstream protection devices. This translates to reduced repair costs, lower downtime, and extended life for motors, drives, and controls in manufacturing lines. 277/480V Wye voltage rating matches common industrial power systems, enabling seamless integration with existing infrastructure without reconfiguring panels. This compatibility reduces installation time and testing effort in new builds or upgrades. NEMA 4X enclosure delivers weather resistance and washdown compatibility, maintaining performance in harsh environments or outdoor installations. This minimizes weather-related failures and protects against corrosion in chemical plants or outdoor panels. Filtering and alarm features provide diagnostics and event visibility, enabling proactive maintenance and faster troubleshooting. With real-time alerts, maintenance windows are optimized and spare-part planning improved. External side mounting offers flexible placement and easier retrofits, supporting compact layouts and service access.
