Brass construction and a single-gang, single-pole design provide durable, corrosion-resistant switching that fits neatly into standard panels, reducing refurbishment costs and enabling quicker panel scoping. This translates to fewer field repairs and a faster time-to-operational status on critical lines in manufacturing environments. The IP66 rating paired with Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Location classification protects against dust and water ingress, ensuring reliable operation in damp or dusty environments and minimizing unplanned downtime. A 15A amperage rating at 277 Vac supports common industrial control circuits, enabling reliable actuation of machinery without over-specification or oversized hardware. The surface-mount mounting style with a 1/2" trade size simplifies retrofits and new installs alike, allowing quick wiring and consistent wiring practices across facilities. Through-feed entry reduces termination stress and simplifies field wiring, lowering installation labor costs and post-installation service calls. Comprehensive documentation, including catalog pages and installation sheets, supports compliant, repeatable installations and faster procurement cycles for maintenance teams and OEMs.
