200A amperage rating and three-wire, four-pole configuration enable high-capacity power feeds for large industrial enclosures, reducing the need for multiple smaller feeders and improving overall system reliability. This translates to fewer field connections and lower installation time, delivering measurable efficiency gains on site. The 600 Vac/250 Vdc rating and 50–400 Hz compatibility support diverse power sources and slow or variable frequency operations without sacrificing safety or performance, which is critical in manufacturing and utilities environments. Copper-free aluminum construction lowers weight and resists corrosion, improving handling during installation and reducing maintenance costs in outdoor, washdown, or harsh environments. The spring-door receptacle style combined with crimp/solder termination enhances enclosure integrity and provides a secure, vibration-resistant connection—minimizing field rework and unscheduled downtime. Grounding via Style 2 and a three-wire, four-pole configuration ensures proper fault current paths and safer energization of feeders. These features integrate seamlessly with the Arktite family, supporting standardized spares, faster retrofits, and improved long-term total cost of ownership in ordinary/non-hazardous locations. With a 2-1/2 inch trade size and a 15.63 in length, 14.44 in height, and 8.38 in width footprint, installation planning becomes straightforward for panel builders and field technicians alike.
