Eaton STS368NW32-1C00 Shunt Trip Safety Switch - NEMA 4X

Feature → Business Impact → Application: High-current capability of 1200 A in a three-pole configuration enables safe, rapid isolation of heavy circuits, reducing fault cascades and equipment damage during faults in motor drives and feeders. This translates to shorter downtime and improved plant safety in process lines and packaging equipment that demand robust interrupt capability. Application: MCCs, switchgear banks, and high‑load distribution panels where reliable fault clearance is critical. Feature → Business Impact → Application: 600 Vac and 250 Vdc voltage ratings provide versatile protection across AC and DC systems, allowing a single device to cover diverse line conditions and control circuits, lowering component counts and procurement complexity in multi‑voltage environments. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Integrated 1NO 1NC auxiliary contact and AFGF relay streamline control wiring and signaling, enabling seamless remote signaling, lockout/tagout compatibility, and faster controller feedback during startup and shutdown. Application: Industrial automation panels requiring clear interlock signaling and auxiliary feedback in a compact footprint. Feature → Business Impact → Application: NEMA 4X enclosure delivers superior corrosion and washdown resistance, reducing enclosure maintenance and extending service life in harsh environments like outdoor switchyards or food/beverage facilities. Application: Outdoor MCCs, process lines, and washdown areas where environmental protection is essential. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Includes 1NO/1NC Aux Con, 480V CPT, AER/GF Relay & Sensors in catalog notes, enabling ready integration with standard Eaton accessories and reducing engineering time for accessory sourcing. Application: Projects aiming for fast deployment with compatible sensing and signaling options. Feature → Business Impact → Application: UL Listed and cUL Certified status supports national and international compliance, simplifying audits and reducing regulatory risks in regulated industries. Application: Facilities pursuing formal safety certifications and customers requiring independent verification of electrical protection devices. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Overall dimensions (approximately 23.15 in depth, 72.5 in height, 47.23 in width) and weight (405 lb) inform cabinet sizing, mounting, and rack space planning, avoiding rework during installation. Application: System designers planning footprint and mechanical integration for large distribution assemblies.
