Eaton Cutler-Hammer Enclosed Starters & Contactors

3-Phase Magnetic, FREEDOM Series
ENCLOSED CONTROL
The FREEDOM to Choose the Right Product for the Application
Eaton Cutler-Hammer’s "Freedom" series of contactors and starters offer something no other electrical line can — the freedom to choose contactors and starters designed for NEMA or IEC standards from one series. This makes matching electrical control to a specific application easier.
The "Freedom" series starters feature a compact, space-saving design, using state-of-the-art technology and the latest in high strength, impact and temperature resistant insulating materials. Starters are available in two rating/configuration styles — NEMA (National Electrical Manufacturers Association) and IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission). NEMA devices are sized based on traditional NEMA classifications and the IEC devices on international ratings. Internationally rated starters, as compared to NEMA devices, generally are physically down-sized to provide higher ratings in a smaller package. Load/life ratings are correspondingly reduced. When considering device selection, evaluate parameters such as type of load, severity of duty, electrical load/life cycles required, etc. IEC devices are typically smaller and have a cost advantage over NEMA equivalents.
