Eaton Specification Sheet - APQ647
60A amperage rating and a 600 Vac/250 Vdc voltage rating enable reliable power delivery for motors and drives in demanding lines. This reduces overload risk and simplifies protection schemes, improving uptime in manufacturing and packaging processes. The 0.50–1.45 in cable diameter range accommodates common motor leads, reducing re-termination and easing field wiring during panel upgrades. Copper-free aluminum housing lowers weight and improves corrosion resistance, simplifying handling during installation and extending component life in harsh environments. Four-wire, four-pole configuration with Style 1 grounding delivers clear, safe grounding and straightforward wiring for motor control circuits, enabling reliable disconnections and safer maintenance. The NEMA 4 enclosure rating with NEC/CEC compliance and UL certification ensures weatherproof operation in ordinary locations, reducing compliance costs and insurance concerns. With dimensions of 4.25 in length and height and 4.875 in width, plus a 2.88 lb weight, the APQ647 fits compact control panels and aligns with standard APQ footprints, streamlining panel planning and reducing shipping and installation time.
