What’s different about XT?

In 2004, Eaton design engineers developed a new IEC motor starter line. Given pressures on manufacturers to increase profits, some design new lines with one primary objective… to take cost out of the product.

That was not what Eaton had in mind. Eaton created the XT line to be engineered better.

Magnet Frame

Redesigned Magnet FrameXT has a new “T-C” shape magnet frame and armature, reducing coil consumption by up to 60%. What does this mean for you… smaller transformers and power supplies.

Eaton’s XT IEC Motor Control was re-engineered from the ground up. Every aspect was reconsidered. Is there a better way? Can motor control be easier? Simpler?

The answer is YES. Here are a few of the engineering innovations…
