30A, 3P, 600V rating provides dependable overcurrent protection for motors and heavy loads, reducing nuisance trips and downtime. This rating translates into a simpler panel design and fewer field modifications during installation. It is ideal for motor control centers, conveyors, and process lines where reliable isolation is essential. Enclosure and environmental resilience are reinforced by a NEMA 12 rating, protecting internal components from dust and moisture in harsh plant environments. This design extends service life, lowers replacement costs, and supports longer maintenance intervals, contributing to predictable performance. Certifications and compliance simplify audits and reduce risk with UL 98 certification and NEC barrier compatibility for NEC 230.62. Facilities with stringent safety programs benefit from quicker inspections and safer operation, while technicians enjoy clearer compliance documentation. Compact footprint and practical handling optimize installation workflows in tight panels: 6.5 in depth, 9.12 in width, and 18 in height; at 15 lb, the unit is straightforward to position and secure without specialized lifting gear. This enables faster changeouts during downtime windows. Visibility and safety features enhance operator confidence: an orange-painted enclosure with a clear status window supports rapid recognition of switch position and reduces misoperation in high-activity areas. This improves line safety and staffing efficiency during routine maintenance and emergencies.

FAQs
DH361UDKW-ORG uses a three-pole, single-throw configuration housed in a NEMA 12 enclosure. Its dimensions (6.5 in depth, 9.12 in width, 18 in height) and 15 lb weight support panel-mount installations in industrial environments. The clear status window aids quick verification of switch position during setup and maintenance, while the rugged housing is suitable for manufacturing floors and control rooms.
Yes, the device is rated for 600 V and 30 A, making it appropriate for protecting motor drives, conveyors, and process-line equipment. Use it as a disconnect in low- to medium-strength circuits within motor control centers, ensuring compliance with NEC barrier requirements and proper wiring practices for three-pole control.
The product carries UL 98 certification and NEC 230.62 (C) compliant barriers, along with a NEMA 12 enclosure rating. These certifications support safety compliance during audits, facilitate regulatory adherence, and reduce inspection-related downtime in regulated facilities.
Maintenance is typically minimal beyond routine visual checks and interval wiring inspections. The robust NEMA 12 enclosure protects against dust and moisture, helping prevent ingress-related failures. Schedule periodic window clarity checks and verify panel mounting integrity to sustain reliable isolation during fault conditions.
Non-fusible window safety switches disconnect without internal fusing elements, relying on a mechanical disconnection to isolate circuits. This model DH361UDKW-ORG is specified as non-fusible, prioritizing quick, visible isolation and simple maintenance over fuse replacement, while still delivering reliable 600 V protection and UL/NEC-compliant behavior in harsh environments.
