Begin with verifying the mounting surface is clean and flat, then secure the X8999-41 to a wall or fixture using appropriate fixings. Route the 500 MCM cables to the terminal screws and tighten per the torque specification. Ensure the enclosure is protected from ingress and that the connection is fully mated to prevent arcing or misalignment.
The X8999-41 is rated up to 500A continuous with 500 Vac and supports three-phase, three-wire, three-pole configurations. It uses a pin/female contact arrangement and terminal screws for secure termination, delivering reliable current transfer and stable voltage profiles in demanding dockside or plant environments.
The unit features stainless steel construction with a neoprene seal, designed for ordinary/non-hazardous locations and rugged industrial use. While not explicitly specified for marine-grade IP ratings, its corrosion-resistant materials and spring door design help withstand exposure typical of dockside operations and similar non-hazardous locations.
The product is classified for Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Locations, aligning with common industrial and dockside compliance expectations. It supports a 500V three-phase service and uses durable terminal screw terminations, which helps ensure consistent electrical safety and reliability within standard power distribution schemes.
The X8999-41 reduces downtime through robust stainless-steel construction, a secure spring-door design, and straightforward terminal screw terminations, minimizing field maintenance. Its high amperage rating and compatible 500 MCM cabling enable fewer components and longer service intervals, delivering lower total cost of ownership in dockside, manufacturing, and processing environments.
