Quick Summary
2472B-125 receptacle provides internal-breaker protection for 125 VAC equipment in rugged industrial settings. Engineers often battle nuisance trips, corrosion, and space constraints in control panels. With IP66 ingress protection and an ordinary/non-hazardous area rating, this Pauluhn receptacle is built for tough environments. Its brass construction and four-wire, three-pole configuration support robust, code-compliant installations across marine, outdoor, water-treatment, and manufacturing applications. The internal breaker reduces external components and simplifies wiring, while the heavy-duty enclosure withstands washdown and vibration. In practice, this design translates to faster installation, lower maintenance costs, and improved safety margins in harsh locations.

FAQs
Plan panel cutouts to accommodate the 7.81 in depth, 13.44 in height, and 6 in width while supporting the brass body. Use proper sourcing per Pauluhn catalogs, ensure IP66 seals are intact, and connect four wires for four-wire, three-pole operation. Follow the LBL1552 instructions for watertight installation.
The internal breaker provides immediate overcurrent protection at the receptacle, reducing the need for external fuses or breakers. This simplifies wiring diagrams and reduces panel complexity while maintaining 20 A at 125 VAC. It improves nuisance-trip resistance and enables faster, safer isolation during maintenance or fault conditions in rugged industrial environments.
Yes, its IP66 rating and brass construction are designed for harsh environments, including marine and outdoor facilities. The ordinary/non-hazardous area classification supports safe installation in non-hazardous locations, while the watertight features reduce ingress during washdowns. Ensure proper mounting and sealing per LBL1552 instructions.
This receptacle carries IP66 ingress protection and falls under Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Locations, aligning with general industrial compliance. These certifications ensure reliable performance against dust and water for non-hazardous facilities, enabling safe operation in typical plants, outdoor sites, or shipboard environments. The Pauluhn lineage also supports compatibility with existing 246/247 series installations.
By consolidating protection and wiring into a single unit, maintenance time is reduced and spare parts inventory simplified. The robust brass body, IP66 sealing, and built-in breaker diminish failure rates in demanding locations, lowering downtime costs and extending service intervals in industrial or marine applications.
