FAQs
The 16375-1 uses a single-pole design with a molded thermoplastic base and tin-plated aluminum connectors. Its footprint is 6.5 in long, 4 in wide, and 3.7 in high, with a weight of 1.47 lb. Install with standard terminal torque per Eaton datasheet and ensure conductor sizing supports up to 420 A, keeping clearances and labeling compliant with panel requirements.
The block is rated for 420 A, with voltage ratings of 600 Vac and 600 Vdc, and a short-circuit rating (SCCR) of 10 kAIC. These specs support high-current distribution in automation panels while maintaining safe fault-current performance and enabling coordinated protection with upstream devices.
Yes, the 16375-1 is RoHS compliant per general specifications. Certifications are listed as 'Contact Manufacturer' for formal documentation, so verify CE, SIL, or IP requirements with Eaton. The unit uses a robust connector system and a durable molded base to withstand industrial environments while supporting compliance workflows.
The compact form factor and single-pole design simplify wiring topology, reducing harness complexity and potential miswiring. Tin-plated aluminum connectors provide reliable contact and ease of torque control, while RoHS compliance helps future-proof procurement. These features translate to faster commissioning, fewer maintenance events, and lower total cost of ownership in panel builds.
Ideal for automation panels, motor control centers, and other power-distribution points in manufacturing, packaging, and process industries. Its high current rating, dual voltage capability, and robust SCCR support reliable operation in harsh environments, making it well-suited for new installations or retrofits in industrial machinery and control systems.
