Explosionproof, rugged housing made from Feraloy iron alloy ensures long service life in harsh environments, reducing field failures and maintenance costs while improving operator safety in hazardous locations. The 600 Vac rating supports high-power control circuits for motors and conveyors, enabling reliable startup sequences and reduced energy spikes. With a single pushbutton in a single-gang enclosure and a 1/2" hub, wiring complexity is minimized, shortening installation time and lowering labor costs on site. A lockout provision enhances safety during maintenance windows, supporting compliant shutdown procedures and safer component replacement. NEC/CEC compliance for Class I, II, and III locations, along with a NEMA 3, 7, 9 rating, provides cross-industry applicability from oil & gas to chemical processing, and simplifies multi-site standardization. The compact footprint (3.5 in L, 5.91 in H, 5.25 in W) fits compact control panels while preserving rating margins for future expansion. Availability of SP3D design packages, installation sheets (IF328), and a catalog confirms easy integration and procurement.
