FAQs
The 14W49BK supports both back-wire and screw terminal connections, allowing use with #18-10 AWG conductors. It requires a torque of 14 lbf-in for secure terminations, and uses nickel-plated brass contacts to ensure consistent conductivity. This combination is ideal for tight panel spaces where quick, reliable wiring is essential and reduces the risk of loose connections that can cause overheating.
IP67 protection seals against dust and immersion in water, safeguarding the electrical contacts and internal components from moisture ingress. The Santoprene housing provides chemical and abrasion resistance, while the watertight design minimizes corrosion risk and downtime. This makes the 14W49BK suitable for outdoor, washdown, and damp-harsh environments common in manufacturing and processing facilities.
The plug supports #18-10 AWG conductors with back-wire and screw-term compatibility, and it is a two-pole, three-wire grounding configuration (NEMA 6-15P). It is rated for 15A at 250V and uses nickel-plated brass contacts for reliable power transfer. This configuration is common in industrial settings requiring a grounded, watertight connection with straightforward field wiring.
Yes. The unit is cULus Listed, aligning with U.S. and Canadian safety standards for industrial electrical components. Its IP67 rating, rugged Santoprene body, and nickel-plated contacts support compliance in environments exposed to moisture, dust, and mechanical stress. This helps facilities meet regulatory requirements while reducing the need for alternate protective enclosures.
The combination of IP67 sealing, corrosion-resistant contacts, and robust housing lowers maintenance frequency by preventing moisture-related failures and contact degradation. Back-wire and screw-term compatibility streamline field upgrades and replacements, reducing labor time. Over time, these features translate to fewer outages, longer service life, and a lower total cost of ownership for industrial power distribution.
