Applications

• Locations where receptacles are used with stationary or
portable electrically operated devices such as:

— Lighting systems
— Conveyors
— Heaters
— Motor-generator sets
— Air conditioners
— Compressors
— Pumps

• Locations where damp or corrosive conditions exist

• Class I: classied locations such as:
— Petrochemical plants
— Petroleum reneries
— Paint and chemical plants
— Any location where ignitable vapors or gases are present

• Class II: classied locations such as:
— Process industries where there are dust hazards from

handling such products as our, grain and starch or any 
location where ignitable amounts of dust are present or 
amounts which would adversely affect performance

Features

• Large housing provides ample wiring room.

• Style 2 (shell and extra pole) grounding.

• Spring door keeps dust out of receptacle when plug is not in
use.

• Brass contacts exert constant pressure along entire contact
surface and provide superior electrical contact.

• Contacts have beryllium copper wire springs.

• Insulators provide superior dielectric and mechanical strength
and lowest arc tracking.

• Tapped NPT conduit openings at top and bottom: 30 Amp 3/4”,
60 Amp 1-1/2”, 100 Amp 2”.

• “Interlocked” Disconnect Switch” provides safe connect and
disconnect operation at 30, 60 or 100 Amp, 600 Vac maximum,
three pole, non-fused motor circuit switch. FSQC permits safe
operation in Class I, Group B as well as Class I, Groups C and
D, Class II, Groups F, G, and Class III.

• To operate, insert plug and turn receptacle face to “ON”
position. To remove plug, turn to OFF position and pull plug out.

• ACP Powertite™ Series plug ts hazardous location FSQC
receptacles.

• Both ip and screw covers are provided. 

Standard Materials

• Receptacle and mounting box: copperfree (4/10 of 1% max.)
aluminum

• ACP plugs: copperfree (4/10 of 1% max.) aluminum housings

• Insulating blocks: ber glass reinforced polyester

Standard Finishes

• Receptacles, mounting boxes, cord connector housings and
caps: epoxy powder coat

Options

• Special Polarization: Prevents plug insertion in a receptacle or
connector wired for a different voltage. In installations where
there are different line voltages, the special polarization option
is desirable. This allows only plugs and receptacles wired for
the same line voltage to be mated together. The receptacle
or connector interior is positioned 22-1/2°, relative to the
polarization rivet, to the right (as specied) of standard, and
plug is polarized to correspond. This option can be added
to receptacles using the Powertite™ Plug. Add sufx -P4 to
receptacle or plug.

• Auxilary contacts 1NO + 1NC. Add sufx -AUX to receptacle.
