Feature → Business Impact → Application: The AREX4042212 uses a 400A rating with a three-wire, four-pole configuration rated for 50–400 Hz and 600 Vac/250 Vdc, in copper-free aluminum. This delivers high-current capability with corrosion resistance, reducing the risk of overheating and enabling longer service intervals in heavy manufacturing lines and data-center power paths. Application: suitable for large motors and feeders in 400A circuits where reliability and durability are critical. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Spring door receptacle style enhances accessibility and protection against contaminants while simplifying maintenance. Application: ideal for frequent access in Arktite AREX installations, minimizing downtime during inspection or testing. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Wire well size of 1.25" and a 5" trade size support large conductor routing with straightforward installation. Application: supports easier wiring in tight enclosures and reduces field termination errors. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Copper-free aluminum construction improves weight, corrosion resistance, and lifecycle cost in outdoor or harsh environments. Application: beneficial for industrial facilities with exposure to humidity or corrosive atmospheres. Feature → Business Impact → Application: NEC/CEC compliance and Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Location suitability reduce regulatory risk and ensure standard-compliant power distribution. Application: simplifies procurement and ensures consistent performance across facilities. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Dimensions and weight (23.63 in L × 13 in W × 19.31 in H; 61.6 lb) provide a clear footprint for enclosure planning and retrofit projects. Application: enables precise space planning for AREX-based power distribution upgrades.
