Key Product Differences
Variants within this series are distinguished by their base model number (e.g., AcuCT-075R through AcuCT-5170R), which corresponds to specific physical dimensions and window sizes. The ordering code follows the format: AcuCT-<BASE_MODEL>-<RATED_CURRENT>-333.
Differences in overall size are significant across models:
- AcuCT-075R Series: 2.3" (58.00 mm) x 2.3" (58.00 mm) x 0.9" (22.00 mm)
- AcuCT-100R Series: 2.6" (65.00 mm) x 2.6" (65.00 mm) x 0.9" (22.00 mm)
- AcuCT-3135R Series: 5.7" (144.00 mm) x 6.1" (154.00 mm) x 1.25" (32.00 mm)
- AcuCT-5170R Series: 8.3" (210.00 mm) x 10.2" (260.00 mm) x 1.8" (45.00 mm)
The series is covered by ACI's Five (5) Year Limited Warranty.
