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 with damp or corrosive conditions.
• Class I: locations where ignitable vapors or gases are present
such as:
— Petrochemical plants
— Petroleum reneries
— Paint and chemical plants
• Class II: 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
• Energized receptacle contacts deeply recessed to reduce
danger of accidental touching.
• Screw cap fastened to chain.
• Unique design brass contacts exert constant pressure along
entire contact surface and provide superior electrical contact.
• Plug mechanical cable clamps prevent strain on cables — they
meet or exceed UL strain relief pull-out requirements.
• Neoprene bushing compressed by cable collar prevents
entrance of water.
• Insulators provide superior dielectric and mechanical strength
and lowest arc tracking.
• Smooth, rounded integral bushing in each hub protects
conductor insulation.
• ”Interlocked Switch and Cover” offers double protection-plug
cannot be inserted or removed unless switch is in ”OFF”
position. Interlock device in the cover breaks circuit when
locking screw is backed down for cover removal. To operate,
insert plug and turn switch to ”ON” position.
