IP66 protection and brass construction deliver durable ingress protection that minimizes dust and water ingress, reducing corrosion-related failures and downtime. Business impact: longer service life and lower maintenance costs in harsh environments. Application: surface-mounted power connections on outdoor machinery, conveyors, and marine equipment. The 2632B-480 supports a 20A, 480 Vac, three-wire, two-pole configuration, ensuring code-compliant, safe power delivery and compatibility with standard feeders and circuit protection. This translates to fewer field wiring complications, faster installations, and predictable electrical performance in industrial automation systems. Brass material also improves wear resistance at connection points, enabling repeated mating cycles in demanding environments. Compatibility with Pauluhn marine pin-and-sleeve ecosystems enhances interchangeability and stocking, reducing spare-part variety. Installation advantages include a compact footprint (3.69 in L x 2.94 in H x 4.25 in W) and a surface-mount mounting method, enabling straightforward retrofits in constrained enclosures. Overall, this receptacle supports reliability, standardization, and lifecycle optimization for project teams and procurement budgets.
