Eaton Specification Sheet - DH263NGKLCR
With a 100A amperage rating and two-pole configuration, this switch provides robust protection for motor and feeder circuits. The fusible with solid neutral configuration offers precise fault isolation and a predictable shutdown path, reducing arc flash risks and aiding compliance with electrical safety standards. This combination is ideal for machine control panels and industrial feeders where reliable protection and clear shutoff are critical. Series K design and a NEMA 1 enclosure deliver rugged indoor protection, shielding the electrical components from dust and incidental exposure typical of factory environments, which supports longer service life and predictable performance in indoor control rooms. Cam-Lok reverse pin enables fast, secure field wiring, cutting installation time and minimizing wiring errors during commissioning and maintenance. The UL Listed certification further reinforces safety compliance, making this switch suitable for regulated facilities and audits. Warranty coverage under Eaton’s policy (25-000) provides peace of mind with a one-year period from installation or eighteen months from shipment, reducing lifecycle risk and supporting procurement planning.

FAQs
When installing the DH263NGKLCR, ensure an indoor environment with a NEMA 1 enclosure rating to protect against dust and minor moisture. Plan for a two-pole, 100A circuit with a solid neutral, and use Cam-Lok reverse pins for quick, secure connections. Verify clearance for a large, 38.15 in tall unit and provide proper lifting hardware for safe mounting.
The 100A rating defines the maximum continuous current the switch is designed to safely interrupt and protect. For motor loads, coordinate with upstream breakers and soft-start devices to prevent nuisance tripping. In feeders, size conductors and downstream devices to match the switch rating, ensuring proper discrimination under fault conditions.
Yes. The DH263NGKLCR features Cam-Lok reverse pin connectors designed for rapid, secure field wiring. In existing panels, verify panel cutouts and mounting clearances align with the 13.68 in width, 18.57 in depth, and 38.15 in height. Use the reverse-pin geometry to streamline wiring during assembly or maintenance.
The product is UL Listed, indicating compliance with recognized safety standards for electrical equipment. Its enclosure is rated for indoor use (NEMA 1), supporting general-purpose factory environments. While CE and IP ratings are not specified in the data, UL Listing and NEMA 1 enclosure provide robust safety and installation assurance in typical industrial settings.
Eaton provides a one-year warranty from the date of installation or eighteen months from the date of shipment, whichever occurs first. This policy helps offset lifecycle costs and supports maintenance planning, especially in facilities with scheduled preventive maintenance and routine safety inspections.
