Feature → The 30A, 250V rating supports higher current loads in control panels and equipment, enabling efficient operation without frequent tripping. Business Impact → This translates to reduced downtime and improved line throughput in industrial settings, particularly for robotics or automation panels using three-wire, two-pole interlocks. Application → Suitable for Pauluhn 800 interlock receptacle circuits in factory floors and outdoor enclosures where reliability matters.Feature → IP66 ingress protection adds dust and water resistance for harsh environments. Business Impact → Lowered maintenance costs and extended service life of receptacles operating near washdowns, outdoors, or in marine-adjacent areas. Application → Ideal for outdoor power connections and marine-interlock applications in ordinary locations.Feature → Brass construction delivers corrosion resistance and durable performance. Business Impact → Longer replacement intervals and reduced total cost of ownership in coastal or humid environments. Application → Suitable for environments where exposure to moisture and corrosive elements is expected.Feature → Compact yet robust dimensions (5.19 in depth, 7.38 in height, 4.56 in width) with a weight of 11.9 lb. Business Impact → Easier integration into standard enclosures and control panels, faster installation, and more predictable mounting clearance. Application → Enclosures and panel assemblies with Pauluhn 800 interlock systems benefit from straightforward mounting.Feature → Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Location suitability plus access to official installation and datasheets. Business Impact → Streamlined compliance workflows and faster commissioning with documented support, reducing risk during qualification and audits. Application → Retrofit or new builds where regulators require clear, well-documented wiring device specs.

FAQs

The 843B-250 supports 30A at 250V, three-wire two-pole configurations and integrates with Pauluhn 800 interlock systems. It fits standard enclosure cutouts and is documented in the LBL1545 instruction sheet and the 843B-250 specification sheet, enabling straightforward panel integration and safe, compliant wiring.
IP66 protection provides complete dust ingress protection and powerful water jet resistance, reducing the risk of ingress in outdoor or washdown areas. This translates to lower maintenance, less downtime, and longer service life for receptacles in factory exterior zones or damp environments.
IP66 rating supports exposure to dust and water, making it suitable for many outdoor installations. However, the Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Location classification should be considered when evaluating suitability for marine use or hazardous-area environments; confirm project-specific environmental requirements before deployment.
Official resources include the Pauluhn 800 interlock catalog pages, IF LBL 1545 instruction sheets for interlocking switches and receptacles, and the Eaton 843B-250 specification sheet. These documents guide wiring, interlock sequencing, and safety compliance during installation.
The brass construction, IP66 protection, and robust 30A/250V rating reduce failure rates and maintenance downtime. Coupled with documented installation guidance, users can expect faster commissioning, lower upkeep costs, and extended service life in demanding industrial settings.
