FAQs
DH361NGK is a 3-pole, 4-wire unit rated 30 A at 600 V and designed for fusible with neutral configurations. Use #14-2 Cu/Al conductors, install in a NEMA 1 painted steel enclosure, and follow NEC 230.62 barrier guidelines. Mounting should align with standard control panels, ensuring proper wiring topology and fault isolation while maintaining accessibility for fuse replacement.
Key ratings are 30 A amperage, 600 V voltage, and HP range up to 20 hp (1/3 PH at 480/600 V). These support protection for mid-size motors in indoor environments, enabling safe disconnection during faults and facilitating predictable startup behavior. The Class H fuse provision adds a defined protection curve, improving reliability and maintenance planning.
Yes. The unit features a NEMA 1 painted steel enclosure and UL Listed certification, making it appropriate for indoor control panels in conveyor and pump systems. Its 30 A, 600 V rating covers common motor sizes, and the fusible-with-neutral configuration aids clean shutdown. Its compact 16.5 in L × 9.5 in W × 8.5 in H footprint supports modular integration in control rooms.
The DH361NGK is UL Listed and NEC 230.62 barrier compliant, with a NEMA 1 enclosure designed for indoor use. These certifications support regulatory compliance, safe operation, and easier QA documentation. The product’s specification sheet and catalog are readily available to aid procurement and installation teams during compliance reviews.
Warranty terms include Eaton’s policy of one year from installation or eighteen months from shipment, whichever occurs first (Eaton Policy 25-000). This protective window, plus reliable Class H fusible protection and standardized wiring, reduces unplanned maintenance, extends motor life, minimizes downtime, and lowers total cost of ownership for mid-size industrial processes.
