Description
Serving as a heavy-duty disconnect, the Eaton MDS3500 provides reliable manual switching for industrial applications. This 500A, 3-pole unit operates without thermal overload elements, functioning strictly as a non-automatic switch. It mounts into Eaton Series C panelboards, switchboards, and motor control centers. While primarily an isolation device, it features a self-protecting high magnetic trip mechanism to prevent damage during massive short circuits, rated up to 65kAIC at 240VAC.Specifications
