Diversified industrial manufacturer Eaton Corporation has launched its new Power Xpert CX low voltage switchgear with a range up to 4000 A. The system provides reliable motor control and power distribution functionality for industrial and commercial installations. The innovative design, combined with Eaton’s expertise in low voltage applications, brings a new reliable platform to the heart of any motor control or power distribution system. Power Xpert CX is a compact, ergonomic and flexible system.

The new system incorporates features such as a mechanical test position for secondary circuit testing of the removable unit. This unique, innovative and patented mechanical test position mechanism is designed to allow for the control circuits to be tested with both incoming and outgoing power terminals disconnected. A coloured indicator shows the position of the unit from a distance, and the IP integrity IP3X is not compromised when the unit is in the test position.

The CX is a reliable solution for applications where the supply of energy is important to business processes; the removable units can be exchanged without having to disconnect power and/or control cabling. The CX is verified by testing according to IEC 61439-2 and EN 61439-2 guaranteeing maximum operational and personnel safety.

The system offers a state of the art solution with functionality for motor control and distribution in a single low voltage platform. To provide a fully integrated and tested solution Eaton has used its state of the art switching and distribution products within the platform currently manufactured in the Netherlands. Innovative design makes the system especially suitable for applications in the water, pharmaceutical, food & beverage, pulp & paper mining and steel industries.
