Hazardous-location compliance and ratings meet NEC/CEC requirements and Class I Division 1 and 2, reducing regulatory risk and streamlining audits in chemical plants, refineries, and mining operations. This translates to safer installations and fewer downtime events. The copper-free aluminum housing paired with brass contacts delivers robust conductivity while minimizing weight, improving handling during field installs and reducing installation labor costs in corrosive environments. Factory-sealed construction and a dead-end back box protect against dust, moisture, and chemical ingress, extending service life and lowering maintenance cycles for remote or hard-to-reach locations. The two-wire, three-pole configuration at 125-250 Vac/480 Vac and 60 Hz supports flexible wiring schemes, enabling quick adaptation to mixed-voltage loads without replacing hardware. With a 7A/30A rating and 1" trade size, it supports a broad range of motors and receptacle applications, delivering reliable power distribution for control panels and machinery. Integration with the Arktite CPS family and availability of official installation guides (IF 1424) simplify procurement, stocking, and field retrofits, reducing total cost of ownership. Industry insight indicates that factory-sealed, explosion-proof receptacles like CPS532 302 are pivotal in maintaining uptime in hazardous facilities where maintenance windows are limited.
