FAQs

ARE2211 uses a 1/2 inch trade size with a two-wire, two-pole configuration and a spring door for enhanced seals. When wiring, ensure enclosure integrity, proper grounding (Style 1), and compatibility with Arktite mating accessories. Refer to the installation sheets and CAD drawings to validate mounting dimensions and recommended clearance for maintenance access.
The ARE2211 is specified for 50 to 400 Hz, making it suitable for a wide range of industrial equipment, from standard mains-driven loads to variable frequency drives. Its copper-free aluminum body keeps weight manageable while delivering dependable electrical contact integrity and corrosion resistance in common industrial environments.
Yes, ARE2211 complies with NEC/CEC standards and is rated for NEMA 4, suitable for Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Locations. This combination ensures regulatory compliance for enclosure-mounted receptacles and reliable operation in typical manufacturing and process facilities.
ARE2211 uses a 1/2" trade size and Style 1 grounding, designed to integrate with Arktite plugs, receptacles, and connectors. For best results, select Arktite catalog components that share the same voltage, current rating, and mounting footprint to streamline installation and spare part compatibility.
Copper-free aluminum reduces corrosion risk and weight, while the spring door minimizes dust ingress and contact wear. Combined with NEMA 4 protection and NEC/CEC compliance, this translates to longer service intervals, lower maintenance costs, and lower risk of unexpected downtime in harsh or outdoor environments.
