Eaton Specification Sheet - DH361FWK-GCL
The enclosure is built from 304 stainless steel with a NEMA 4X rating, delivering superior corrosion resistance in outdoor and washdown environments, which reduces maintenance costs and extends asset life in harsh sites. Business impact: lower replacement frequency and safer operations; application: outdoor equipment rooms, chemical plants, and water treatment facilities. The 30 A amperage rating and 600 V voltage rating enable reliable protection for motors and feeders, minimizing electrical faults and delaying arc-flash exposure; application: control panels and motor starter configurations. Fuse class Class H and fusible-without-neutral configuration provide flexible protection without unnecessary conductors, simplifying retrofits and reducing wiring complexity in existing layouts. Wire size supports #14-2 AWG Cu/Al, streamlining installation and enabling consistent termination across multiple circuits; application: service entrances and compact switchgear. The three-pole design with three wires ensures straightforward integration with three-phase systems, improving coordination with upstream protective devices; application: industrial power distribution. Catalog notes indicate field modification to meet NEMA 3R rainproof requirements when a drain hole is opened, offering on-site adaptability and capital cost avoidance for weather-exposed installations. Overall, the device combines rugged durability with installation flexibility to reduce downtime and optimize maintenance intervals.

FAQs
This model is designed for three-pole, three-wire installations with a 30 A rating at 600 V. Ensure proper mounting in a NEMA 4X enclosure, terminate #14-2 Cu/Al conductors, and follow NEC guidelines for service entrance protection. Verify compatibility with upstream protective devices and confirm drain hole modification if rainproofing is needed.
The switch supports 30 A and up to 600 V, with a three-pole configuration and fusible without neutral. It uses Class H fuses and accepts #14-2 AWG Cu/Al wires. The HP rating reaches 7.5 to 20 hp at 1/3 PH for 480–600 V, enabling protection for a range of motor loads.
Yes. It features a 304 stainless steel enclosure with a NEMA 4X rating, providing corrosion resistance in harsh outdoor or washdown environments. For rain-prone sites, field modification to meet NEMA 3R rainproof requirements is possible by opening a factory drain hole.
The device is UL Listed, with NEC 230.62 compliant barrier. It is intended for service entrance use and, with proper field modification, can be adapted to meet additional environmental requirements while maintaining code compliance in industrial installations.
The DH361FWK-GCL offers durable stainless steel protection, reducing corrosion-related replacement costs and downtime. Its field-modifiable rainproof capability minimizes outdoor enclosure upgrades, while the robust Class H fuse protection lowers fault propagation, contributing to lower maintenance frequency and safer, longer-lasting power isolation.
