Special features
Flammability Rating UL 94-V0
Three-pole design supports up to 310 A, enabling consolidation of power distribution in a single block and reducing harness length, wiring complexity, and potential fault points in control panels. This translates to faster assembly and lower maintenance costs on automation projects, especially in high-density industrial environments. The 600 Vac and 600 Vdc rating provides versatility across AC and DC power rails, simplifying inventory and improving configurability for machine builders. A molded thermoplastic housing with a black finish delivers durable insulation and ease of handling in harsh plants, reducing wear where panels experience vibration or frequent access. UL 94-V0 flammability and RoHS compliance address safety and regulatory requirements, supporting safer design reviews and smoother approvals in regulated markets. The compact footprint (2.66 in L × 5.39 in W × 2.5 in H) and light 0.89 lb weight optimize cabinet space and shipping costs while preserving mechanical robustness for field service. Compatibility with Bussmann series standards ensures predictable mounting patterns and straightforward replacement or upgrades for existing control panels, minimizing downtime during deployment or expansion. Overall, the Eaton Bussmann series power distribution block delivers reliable, compliant power distribution with efficient installation and long service life for industrial automation projects.

FAQs

For installation, ensure the panel has adequate space for a three-pole distribution block and proper clearances around the molded thermoplastic housing. Use appropriate mounting hardware to secure the block and align with the unit’s 2.66 in length, 5.39 in width, and 2.5 in height. Verify wiring gauge and connector compatibility with your harness design to minimize resistance and heat buildup.
The 16023-3 supports up to 310 A and can be used with 600 Vac or 600 Vdc supplies. This makes it suitable for high-current power distribution in both AC and DC environments. Ensure derating guidelines based on ambient temperature and enclosure ventilation are followed to maintain safe operation and reliability.
Yes, the 16023-3 is RoHS compliant, aligning with environmental and regulatory requirements for modern electrical assemblies. Flammability is rated UL 94-V0, which supports safety approvals typical in control panels. For formal certifications beyond RoHS and UL, consult the manufacturer documentation or contact Eaton to confirm any additional certifications relevant to your application.
This three-pole distribution block is ideal for control panels, machine power distribution, and other automation equipment where high current and compact form factor are critical. It supports hybrid AC/DC configurations common in automated lines and integrates smoothly with Bussmann series components, simplifying panel design and maintenance in manufacturing environments.
