FAQs
The GHG2622301R0001 provides flexible installation with 2 x M32 and 1 x M25 entry sizes, allowing seamless gland and conduit connections. Its fiberglass-reinforced polyester enclosure withstands harsh environments, while the three-pole design supports standard motor control panels. This combination enables straightforward retrofits and quick field wiring without sacrificing protection or compliance.
Key specs include a 20A amperage rating, 690 Vac voltage rating, and a three-pole configuration with an integrated switch. The device is designed for reliable isolation of fractionally to fully loaded three-phase motors, delivering consistent performance in demanding environments while meeting relevant NEC/CEC and IECEx/ATEX standards.
Yes. The unit carries IECEx/ATEX certification in addition to NEC/CEC compliance, making it appropriate for hazardous locations across global markets. The IP66 enclosure further ensures protection against dust and water ingress, supporting safe operation in Zone 1/2 and Divisions 1/2 configurations as applicable.
With a rugged IP66/NEMA 4X enclosure and durable fiberglass-reinforced polyester body, the switch resists dust, water, and corrosion. Its integrated switch reduces component count, simplifying wiring and service tasks. The result is longer mean time between failures (MTBF), quicker maintenance, and reduced downtime during motor isolation and startup sequences.
Confirm that the application falls within hazardous/classified locations and verify NEC/CEC and IECEx/ATEX compatibility. Check the enclosure rating (IP66, NEMA 4X) and confirm entry sizes (2 x M32, 1 x M25) suit gland hardware. Finally, ensure the device voltage and horsepower ratings align with the motor load and control circuitry for a compliant, safe retrofit.
