FAQs
The 16373-2 is a two-pole Bussmann series power distribution block used to split incoming power and provide protection across multiple circuits inside control panels and compact automation cabinets. Its 3.98 in length, 3.35 in width, and 3.22 in height offer a compact footprint while the 1.26 lb weight aids handling during installation. This supports organized wiring and reliable power distribution in tight spaces.
Yes, the 16373-2 is RoHS compliant, aligning with current environmental and disposal standards. For installation, expect a compact two-pole device with a defined footprint (3.98 in L Ă— 3.35 in W Ă— 3.22 in H) and modest weight (1.26 lb). Verify panel clearance and conductor routing in your control cabinet, and consult the Eaton datasheet for wiring guidance and terminal torques.
The two-pole design simplifies circuit distribution by providing two primary poles for power routing, reducing cross-connections and simplifying wiring schemes. This supports easier maintenance and faster fault isolation in control panels. The compact form factor helps maximize usable enclosure space, making it well-suited for space-constrained automation cabinets where reliable distribution is critical.
Regulatory data shows RoHS compliance, with certifications listed as 'Contact Manufacturer' for formal approvals beyond RoHS. Specific CE, SIL, or IP ratings are not listed in the provided data; customers should request official certification documentation from Eaton to confirm region-specific approvals and any additional safety or environmental certifications required for their application.
Adopting the 16373-2 can improve panel density and reduce wiring complexity, contributing to faster assembly and easier maintenance. The RoHS compliance simplifies regulatory compliance across global operations, and traceable cataloging (16373-2, UPC 051712677424) supports streamlined procurement. While price data isn’t provided here, the compact profile and reliable two-pole distribution typically yield favorable total cost of ownership in standard control-panel deployments.
