Eaton XTCEXRSBB – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Do I need an RC surge suppressor on a DC-operated Eaton contactor?
No. DC operated contactors already have a suppressor built in, so the Eaton RC surge suppressor is for AC operated contactors only. One thing to plan for on AC units: adding the suppressor introduces a dropout delay, so if your control scheme depends on fast de-energization timing, account for it.
2) Which coil voltage version of the Eaton RC surge suppressor do I order for a 120V control circuit?
Two coil voltage ranges are offered. The 110-240V version covers a 120V AC control circuit and also 208V and 240V coils, and comes as XTCEXRSBA (almond) or XTCEXRSBB (black). The 110-130V version, XTCEXRSFA, is the narrower band part for 110-130V coils only. Match the suppressor to the coil voltage of the contactor it is going on, not to the motor voltage.
3) How many Eaton RC surge suppressors come in a package?
They ship 10 to a package, and orders have to be placed in multiples of that package quantity. If you are suppressing a handful of contactors in one MCC lineup, a single package covers ten coils.
4) Will the Eaton RC suppressor fit inside my existing panel without eating up DIN rail space?
It is a clip-on contactor accessory rather than a separately mounted device, measuring .35 in wide, 1.73 in long/deep and .98 in high. It integrates into the contactor assembly itself, so it does not consume additional rail width beyond the contactor already on the rail.
5) Does the Eaton RC surge suppressor work with other brands of contactor?
It is built as a matched accessory for Eaton contactors and mounts to that line. There is no cross-brand fitment claim behind it, so for a Square D, Allen-Bradley or Siemens contactor you want that manufacturer's own suppressor module.
6) Does this Eaton contactor suppressor meet IEC 60947 for a spec'd control panel?
The RC surge suppressor is built to IEC 60947 and is CE marked. That covers the low-voltage switchgear and controlgear standard most commercial and industrial control panel specs reference for contactor accessories.
7) Why add a surge suppressor to a motor starter coil at all?
When an AC contactor coil de-energizes it kicks back a voltage transient. The Eaton RC suppressor clamps that transient at the coil, which extends contactor life and cuts the electrical noise that otherwise couples into PLC inputs and other sensitive gear sharing the panel. It is common practice in motor control centers, panelboard starter assemblies and control panels on both renovation and new construction work.
