Brass construction resists corrosion in washdown environments, extending service life and reducing replacement costs while delivering durable protection for splices and terminations in demanding facilities. This translates to lower maintenance frequency and fewer field interventions on critical lines in manufacturing plants and chemical processing sites. The IP66 ingress protection safeguards against water and dust ingress, improving reliability in damp areas, outdoor enclosures, and washdown zones, which reduces unplanned downtime and service calls. Its compact 4.25 in length/height and 2.38 in width create a space-efficient footprint suitable for tight control panels, enabling denser wiring layouts and quicker panel fabrication. A 2-3/8 in depth and a 3.8 lb weight balance robustness with manageable handling, easing installation and retrofit projects in constrained spaces. The 6-pole terminal block supports multi-circuit wiring, simplifying control and power distribution without sacrificing accessibility. Surface-mount mounting accelerates installation on walls or equipment skins, improving retrofit speed and reducing mounting hardware needs. NEC/CEC compliance for Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Locations ensures code-conforming installations across industrial facilities, while the Pauluhn 562 design aligns with established enclosure families for consistent cross-model ducting and knockouts, supporting scalable panel designs and better procurement planning.
