Eaton Specification Sheet - 562BT4-C3
Brass construction and IP66 sealing provide rugged durability and superior environmental protection, reducing corrosion risk in outdoor, wash-down, or humid environments. This directly translates to longer service life and less frequent maintenance, which lowers lifecycle costs on water treatment, food processing, or marine installations. The 2-3/8" depth and 4-pole terminal block support a 1" trade size circuit, enabling more efficient wiring schemes and faster termination during panel upgrades or new builds. Surface mounting with a through-feed design simplifies installation, minimizes field improvisation, and accelerates commissioning in control cabinets, conveyor lines, and process skids. NEC/CEC compliance coupled with Ordinary Location classification gives teams confidence during audits and in multi-site deployments, reducing rework risk and ensuring consistent performance across facilities. The Pauluhn 562 series standardization enables spare parts compatibility and streamlined procurement for maintenance teams, while the brass body adds durability without compromising weight budgets for shipment and installation. This enclosure is well suited to environments where robust protection, reliable sealing, and straightforward wiring are paramount, such as machine rooms, dry industrial floors, and moderate-weather outdoor installations.

FAQs
The 562BT4-C3 is designed for surface mounting with a through-feed terminal block, supporting a 1" trade size. Its 4-pole block accommodates multi-conductor wiring, enabling efficient, field-terminations while preserving enclosure integrity. For installation, ensure a flat mounting surface, seal against moisture ingress using the existing gasket, and route conductors through the feed to minimize bending radius. This configuration is ideal for compact control panels or side-mounted enclosures on conveyors where space is constrained.
Key specifications include a 1" trade size, 4-pole terminal block, through-feed capability, 2-3/8" depth, and brass construction with IP66 protection. These features support reliable power and control wiring in non-hazardous locations, resisting ingress from dust and water while allowing straightforward wiring in tight enclosures. The design also aligns with NEC/CEC standards, ensuring compliant installations across commercial and light industrial facilities.
Yes. The enclosure is classified for Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Locations and complies with NEC/CEC standards, making it suitable for general industrial, commercial, and light manufacturing environments. Its IP66 rating provides robust protection against dust and water ingress, which helps maintain electrical integrity in non-hazardous settings such as workshops, machine rooms, and outdoor equipment bays with adequate shelter.
Consider NEC/CEC compliance for electrical installations, IP66 ingress protection for environmental sealing, and Ordinary Location classification for non-hazardous applications. These certifications ensure regulatory alignment, reduce audit risk, and support consistent performance across sites. The brass construction also contributes to durability in demanding environments, complementing the enclosure’s protective ratings.
The 562BT4-C3 offers reduced maintenance downtime due to reliable IP66 sealing and durable brass construction, which lowers replacement frequency. Its standard 1" trade size and 4-pole terminal block streamline wiring, speeding up installation and future upgrades. Integrated with NEC/CEC compliance, it simplifies audits and procurement, yielding long-term savings in labor, parts inventory, and project timelines, particularly in multi-site deployments.
