FAQs

To install CZP-16-378-SNK, align the 16-shell insert with the corresponding Roughneck CZ housing, ensuring the Socket, crimp-terminated #12 AWG conductors are seated firmly in the crimp contacts. Use the recommended crimp tool to ensure proper compression and verify continuity with a test harness. The kit supports straightforward field assembly, reducing rework and enabling faster panel integration in heavy industrial equipment.
Key specs include a 30A amperage rating, shell size 16, contact size #12 AWG, connector gender Female, contact type Socket, and crimp termination with gold plating. These parameters define reliable power, signal, and control connections in industrial environments, while maintaining compatibility with standard Roughneck CZ components.
Yes. The insert kit specifies ordinary/non-hazardous area classification, making it appropriate for typical manufacturing floors, data centers, and non-hazardous process environments. For regulators and end users, this classification simplifies compliance planning while ensuring robust performance for everyday industrial applications.
The CZ Series products carry Canadian certification references (UL) for data, signal, control and power applications, as well as area classifications indicating suitability for ordinary/non-hazardous locations. This provides regulatory alignment for projects in Canada and similar markets, supporting risk-managed deployment of Roughneck connectors.
Maintenance benefits come from gold-plated contacts that resist corrosion, reducing contact resistance over time and extending service life. ROI is driven by standardized 30A power handling, field-installable crimp connections, and compatibility with existing CZ insert kits, which lowers spare-parts inventory, reduces downtime, and accelerates expansions or redesigns of control panels.
