Eaton AH460C7W Pin and Sleeve Connector - IP69K Rated

The IP69K and IP67 environmental ratings protect against high-pressure washdowns and dust ingress, reducing unplanned downtime in food processing lines and wastewater facilities, while delivering reliable performance in harsh environments. This translates to longer service life and lower maintenance costs, especially in facilities with frequent cleaning cycles. The 60A at 480V capacity supports three-phase motors and pumps, enabling more compact installations and fewer parallel connections for conveyors and mixers, which reduces enclosure space and installation labor. Nickel-plated brass contacts offer superior corrosion resistance in chlorinated washdown zones, maintaining low contact resistance and consistent torque across service intervals. The nylon body provides a lightweight, impact-resistant enclosure with chemical compatibility, simplifying handling and installation in tight control panels. Back-wire termination and a wide cord diameter range (0.66-1.5 in) accelerate terminations, minimize wiring errors, and promote repeatable field assembly. The three-pole, four-wire design with grounding supports safe, code-compliant motor connections for 15 hp loads, aligning with common industrial drive configurations. Certifications such as cRUus simplify regulatory alignment for North American manufacturing and equipment integration, reducing compliance risk and procurement complexity.
