IP69K and IP67 environmental protection delivers washdown-ready reliability, reducing maintenance downtime in food and beverage facilities and wastewater plants. This translates to higher up-time and safer operation in harsh cleaning cycles, while supporting compliance with industry hygiene standards. The 100A, 125/250V rating, three-pole, four-wire design with grounding enables high-load distribution for automation equipment and motors, minimizing the need for multiple adapters and simplifying panel wiring. Back-wire wiring and a 70 lbf-in torque rating streamline installation, improve terminal integrity, and reduce field failures in rugged environments. Nickel-plated brass contacts paired with a Nylon housing resist corrosion and abrasion, delivering stable performance across temperature swings and demanding production schedules. Compatibility with Arrow Hart pin and sleeve devices supports scalable plant-wide power distribution. This connector also addresses common objections about cost by delivering longer service life, easier maintenance, and faster commissioning in industrial and process automation settings.
