FAQs
For compatibility with 480 Vac systems, mount the WSRD63542CH-S483 in a suitable sheet-steel enclosure rated for industrial environments and non-hazardous locations. Use the three-wire four-pole configuration to maintain proper neutral and ground references, and connect auxiliary contacts as required for control circuits. Verify NEC/CEC compliance during panel design and ensure proper clearances around the spring door and enclosure to meet safety standards.
The interlock mechanism prevents energization while the door is open and maintains a locked, isolated state during maintenance. This reduces the risk of accidental startup, protects maintenance personnel, and simplifies lockout-tagout procedures. The design supports factory-installed auxiliary contacts for signaling interlock status to the control system, enabling safer, more reliable isolation in automated lines.
The WSRD63542CH-S483 is designed to meet NEC/CEC standards and includes a NEMA 3R enclosure rating for safe operation in ordinary/non-hazardous locations. UL certification is available through documentation, and the unit supports the Arktite WSRD interlock family’s compliance framework, ensuring safe isolation and reliable performance in industrial environments.
Yes, the WSRD63542CH-S483 is intended for ordinary/non-hazardous locations. It features a NEMA 3R-rated enclosure offering weather-resistant protection suitable for many indoor and protected outdoor applications. The solid/spring door options provide robust protection for the enclosed disconnect switch, while the sheet-steel construction supports durability in factory environments.
By incorporating a factory-installed auxiliary contact option and a reliable 60A interlocked switch, maintenance downtime is reduced due to quicker isolation and easier control integration. The robust construction and NEC/CEC compliance lower risk of non-compliance penalties, and the durable sheet-steel enclosure minimizes wear. Over time, this translates to lower maintenance costs and higher line uptime.
