Eaton FSQC3430 S4 Interlocked Receptacle - Hazardous Locations

Interlocked switching is a core safety feature that minimizes arc flash and equipment damage. The FSQC3430 S4 interlock prevents the receptacle from opening while a circuit is energized, ensuring safe maintenance and reducing unplanned downtime. In industrial automation settings, this translates to lower risk during tool changes and in hazardous-location panels, where controlled access is essential. Through-feed back box design simplifies installation in heavy-duty enclosures. With a 1" Trade size and a through-feed configuration, technicians can route power and control wiring in a single, secure path, cutting wiring time and reducing field errors. The design supports rapid retrofit in legacy equipment and aligns with common field configurations in hazardous-area installations. Copper-free aluminum housing paired with brass contacts delivers corrosion resistance and robust current handling. The lighter material reduces overall equipment weight and simplifies handling during installation in confined spaces. Brass contacts maintain durable conductivity across 30A at 120-600 VAC, supporting reliable long-term performance in harsh environments. Durable sealing and a spring-door receptacle style provide dust and contaminant resistance in dusty or industrial environments. The spring door helps maintain enclosure integrity when not in use, reducing maintenance calls. The 1" trade size and 120-600 VAC rating broaden compatibility with existing power distributions and control circuits in sites ranging from oil and gas to chemical processing. Compliance-ready and field-proven, FSQC3430 S4 aligns with NEC/CEC standards and UL certifications for hazardous locations, giving procurement teams confidence during audits. The rugged construction supports preventive maintenance regimes and reduces replacement costs by extending service life in explosion-proof installations. End users gain predictable performance, safer operations, and faster mean time between outages.
