FAQs
Yes. NST1018F D60361 is specified as a Square D compatible unit, designed to integrate with standard Square D panels and NST-series installations. Its non-metallic Krydon housing simplifies mounting and wiring within control cabinets, reducing panel space constraints and facilitating retrofit projects.
The NST1018F D60361 is rated for 60A with a 600 Vac voltage rating and supports up to 40 hp, making it suitable for fused protection of medium-load motors and equipment in industrial environments while maintaining safe isolation during maintenance.
This unit is designed for ordinary/non-hazardous locations and is well-suited for manufacturing floors, packaging lines, and other non-explosive settings where durable, code-compliant power disconnection is required inside control panels and switchgear.
It complies with NEC/CEC standards, has NEMA ratings 12, 3, and 4X, and uses a Krydon enclosure suitable for non-hazardous environments. This combination supports reliable operation and regulatory compliance in common industrial applications.
The fiberglass-reinforced Krydon housing resists corrosion and environmental wear, reducing replacement frequency. Coupled with a fused 60A design and standard dimensions, it minimizes downtime during maintenance and supports longer service life in typical industrial control applications, delivering favorable total cost of ownership.
