FAQs
The DG326FRK is a three-pole, fusible without neutral general duty safety switch designed for 240 V systems. It mounts in NEMA 3R enclosures and accepts Class H fuses. Note that solid neutral bars are not included and must be ordered separately. It is compatible with standard industrial control panels and requires a neutral kit only if service entrance use is planned.
DG326FRK provides a 600A amperage rating at 240V and uses Class H fuses for protection. It is fusible without a neutral by default, with HP ratings (maximum) applicable only when dual-element fuses are used. This configuration supports reliable protection for large loads while enabling flexible fuse coordination in panel designs.
Yes. The DG326FRK is categorized as a general duty safety switch and is suitable for motor control panels and general electrical distribution. Its three-pole configuration supports three-phase circuits, and its rugged NEMA 3R enclosure is appropriate for indoor and outdoor environments, assuming correct neutral kit considerations and fuse selections per HP requirements.
DG326FRK is UL Listed and features NEC 230.62 (C) compliant barrier protection. The enclosure is a NEMA 3R rated unit, suitable for outdoor use. These certifications and ratings help ensure code compliance and safety in both new installations and upgrades of existing electrical systems.
Warranty terms follow Eaton Selling Policy 25-000, offering one year from installation or eighteen months from shipment, whichever occurs first. This, combined with UL-listed certification and durable galvanized steel construction, helps minimize maintenance costs and equipment downtime. Proper fusion strategy (including dual-element fuses if HP is a concern) can further reduce lifecycle costs by extending component life and reducing failures.
