Feature → Business Impact → Application: Watertight locking design provides a secure, moisture-resistant connection that reduces the risk of corrosion and electrical faults, translating to lower maintenance costs and less unplanned downtime in washdown environments. Application: Ideal for outdoor enclosures, manufacturing floors with frequent high-pressure cleaning, and any industrial setting where reliability under moisture is non-negotiable. Feature → Business Impact → Application: NEMA 4, IP67, and NEMA 6/4X environmental ratings ensure robust ingress protection, enabling compliant operation in food processing, chemical plants, and marine facilities without frequent part replacements. Application: Install in control panels and handheld equipment facing exposure to water, dust, or washdowns. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Back wiring supports quick, error-free electrical terminations, reducing installation time and electrician exposure on site. Application: Field retrofits and new builds where speed and reliability are prioritized. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Nickel-plated brass contacts and Santoprene sealing deliver durable electrical contacts and long-term corrosion resistance, improving conductive reliability in harsh conditions. Application: High-use industrial connectors, enclosure feeds, and connectors in salt air or chemical environments. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Nylon face/body and color-coding (Yellow) aid visibility and durability, supporting safer, faster identification during maintenance and spare-part selection. Application: Assembly lines, warehousing, and automated equipment that demand quick recognition and rugged performance.

FAQs

The 24W49 supports back wiring for #18-10 AWG conductors and uses a two-pole, three-wire (with grounding) L6-15 configuration rated at 15A and 250V. Ensure the wiring terminals are clean, insert conductors fully, and torque to the specified 14 lbf-in to maintain a secure, moisture-resistant connection. This setup reduces现场勘测时间 and simplifies field repairs in rugged environments.
Yes. The plug is designed for harsh environments with NEMA 4, IP67, NEMA 6, NEMA 6P, and NEMA 4X compatibility. This combination provides robust protection against water, dust, and corrosion, making it suitable for washdown zones, outdoor enclosures, and chemical-adjacent applications while maintaining safe, reliable power connections.
Absolutely. The 24W49 is part of Eaton’s Arrow Hart watertight locking devices family and is designed to integrate with matching locking plugs and receptacles. Its color coding and back-wiring approach simplify stocking, maintenance, and quick field retrofits across industrial installations.
The plug is cULus Listed and engineered to meet multiple ingress protection and NEMA ratings, including NEMA 4, IP67, NEMA 6, and NEMA 4X. These certifications support compliance with safety standards and performance requirements in sectors like manufacturing, food processing, and general industrial automation.
Back wiring plus corrosion-resistant nickel-plated brass contacts and Santoprene sealing reduce maintenance intervals by sustaining reliable connections under moisture and debris exposure. The rugged Nylon body and locking mechanism minimize field failures, lowering replacement costs and downtime, which translates to measurable ROI in continuous-operation facilities.
