Selling Policy 25-000 - Distribution and Control Products and Services
200 A amperage rating at 240 V enables safe, controlled shutdown for mid-to-large motor loads, reducing exposure to arc flash and improving system reliability. The business impact is clear: faster fault isolation minimizes downtime, lowers maintenance costs, and enhances device longevity in high-demand environments. Ideal applications include heavy machinery and conveyor systems where robust protection and swift disconnects are essential, such as OEM panel builds and retrofit projects for process lines. The enclosure is a corrosion-resistant 304 stainless steel with a NEMA 4X rating, delivering superior protection in both outdoor and washdown settings. The business benefit is extended equipment life and lower corrosion-related maintenance, especially in coastal or chemical processing facilities. This makes it an excellent fit for food and beverage, water treatment, and packaging lines where durability matters. Fuse class provision is Class H and the configuration is fusible without neutral, enabling precise fault clearing and improved selectivity. For maintenance planning, this supports safer, scheduled shutoffs and straightforward stock management for replacement fuses, ultimately reducing unplanned downtime in critical manufacturing steps. Applications include process control panels and motor control centers where predictable fuse protection is required. With three poles and three wires, wiring is straightforward and compliant with standard industrial practices. The design supports #6-300 kcmil Cu/Al conductors, streamlining installation in existing cabinets and reducing the need for custom interconnects. This contributes to faster project timelines and lower installation costs in new builds or expansions. Dimensions and form factor (16 in depth, 6 in height, 9 in width) and a 61 lb weight provide a sturdy, rigid footprint for mounting in rugged environments. Compatibility with common mounting layouts minimizes enclosure modification and helps achieve a clean, compliant installation across facilities. Compliance and certifications are embedded in the product: UL Listed, NEC 230.62 barrier compliance, and a NEMA 4X stainless enclosure. These attributes translate to smoother commissioning, easier approvals, and fewer vendor-specific customization hurdles for industrial buyers.
