B-LINE ES1T1R1GF3 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What voltage and amp rating is the Eaton ES1T1R1GF3 elevator control switch rated for?
The ES1T1R1GF3 is a 30A, 480V elevator control switch. That covers a typical 480V three-phase elevator machine room feed where the disconnect is sized at 30 amps. If your machine room runs 208V or 240V, or your controller draws more than 30 amps, this is not the right unit.
2) Does the Eaton elevator disconnect ES1T1R1GF3 come with the fuses?
No. Class J fuses are not included and have to be ordered separately. Plan on sourcing a set of Class J fuses sized to the elevator controller before the inspection, because the switch ships as an empty fused disconnect.
3) Does this elevator control switch have the fire service shunt trip relay built in?
It does. The ES1T1R1GF3 is furnished with a 120 Vac coil fire safety interface relay and a three-pole fire alarm voltage monitoring relay, plus a green pilot light on the enclosure. That is the arrangement used to tie the elevator disconnect into the fire alarm system for shunt trip on sprinkler pre-action.
4) What wire size can I land in the lugs on this 30A elevator disconnect?
The main lugs accept #14 through #8 aluminum or copper. That covers the usual range for a 30 amp feeder, but if the run is long enough that you have upsized the conductors past #8, the lugs will not take them and you will need a larger frame or a gutter tap.
5) Can this elevator control switch be mounted outdoors or in a wet machine room?
No. It is a NEMA 1 enclosure, which is indoor only and gives no protection against water or dust. For an outdoor location, a rooftop machine room exposed to weather, or a washdown area, you need a NEMA 3R or 4 rated enclosure instead.
6) Is there a neutral lug in the Eaton ES1T1R1GF3?
No neutral lug is furnished on this configuration. If your installation needs a neutral, Eaton offers it as an option and the optional neutral lug is sized the same as the line and load lugs. Order the version with the neutral if the elevator controller or cab lighting circuit requires one.
7) How much wall space do I need for the Eaton ES1T1R1GF3 and how heavy is it?
Allow for an enclosure measuring 29.62 x 16.35 x 11.18 inches, weighing 60 lb. That is deliberately oversized: the extra volume is there to house the control power transformer, the fire safety interface relay, and the control terminal blocks. Budget the wall space and plan on two people or a lift to hang it.
8) Why is this elevator disconnect enclosure so much bigger than a standard 30 amp fused switch?
Because it is built as a standard oversized enclosure to mount the control power transformer, the fire safety interface relay, and the control terminal blocks inside the same box. A plain 30A fused disconnect only has to hold the switch and fuses. Here you are getting the elevator fire service control gear in one enclosure instead of a separate control cabinet beside the disconnect.
9) What does the green pilot light on the Eaton elevator control switch indicate?
The green pilot light is part of the same package as the three-pole fire alarm voltage monitoring relay, giving the mechanic a visible indication at the disconnect that the monitored control voltage is present. It saves opening the cover or putting a meter on the terminals to confirm power before servicing the car.
