2. 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.

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

Better Termination
New terminal design provides a
better connection compared to side-
by-side saddle clamp terminals.

Relocated Coil Terminals
Ever tried to troubleshoot the coil
with 480V power circuit wires in the
way? We moved the coil terminals
to the front. Safer and Easier.

7. You take pride in your engineering. So do we.
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 Magnet Frame
engineering innovations…

type starter or a reversing contactor assembly…

making it up to 60% more efficient on coil
consumption. What does this mean for you…
