Eaton Specification Sheet - 6006B-480
Brass construction provides rugged durability and excellent corrosion resistance in marine and industrial environments. This translates to longer service life and lower maintenance costs in washdown-heavy facilities, reducing unplanned downtime. The 6006B-480 is part of Eaton's Pauluhn Marine Pin and Sleeve family, ensuring seamless compatibility with standard marine plugs and receptacles on 30A circuits. IP66 ingress protection guards against heavy water jets and dust, supporting reliable operation in outdoor, wet-dust environments. That protection minimizes the risk of field failures during routine washing, hose-down cleaning, or exposure to precipitation, improving uptime and safety in Ordinary/Non-Hazardous locations. Four-wire, three-pole configuration provides proper grounding and a distinct hot-neutral-ground arrangement for critical power networks, reducing arc-flash risk and supporting compliant installations in industrial panels and field connections. Angle orientation and a compact footprint enable mounting in tight spaces typical of equipment enclosures and vessel bulkheads, simplifying cable routing and wire management in crowded control panels. Rated for 30A at 480 VAC, this receptacle handles common heavy-load industrial and marine loads with consistent mating and electrical integrity across cycles, contributing to lower maintenance intervals and predictable performance for critical systems.
