FAQs
For installation, plan a three-pole, three-wire wiring scheme with fusible without neutral configuration. Use conductor sizes within the #14-#2 Cu/Al range and ensure mounting in a suitable 316 stainless steel, NEMA 4X enclosure. Verify enclosure seals against washdown exposure and integrate the Class H fuse protection per the HP and voltage ratings (60A at up to 600V). The unit’s dimensions (20 in L, 8.5 in H, 9.5 in W) and 21 lb weight support straightforward field mounting and serviceability.
The DH362FWK316 uses a 316 stainless steel enclosure with a NEMA 4X rating, delivering superior corrosion and washdown resistance. This design enables reliable operation in wet, dusty, and outdoor facilities, reducing maintenance frequency and extending service life. With UL Listed compliance, it also maintains performance integrity under demanding industrial conditions, making it suitable for environments with exposure to moisture and contaminants.
Yes. The device is UL Listed and configured as a three-pole, three-wire safety switch rated for 600 V, with an amperage of 60 A. It supports motor protection for three-phase systems and is suitable for networks using up to 50 hp at 1/3 phase on 480–600 V. This makes it suitable for industrial motor feeders and control panels requiring compliant, reliable isolation.
This switch is ideal for motor control centers, conveyors, pumps, and machine tools that require robust power isolation and protection in corrosive or washdown environments. Its 60 A rating and HP range up to 50 hp enable protection and control for mid-size industrial drives operating at 480–600 V. The 316 stainless construction and NEMA 4X enclosure help ensure reliability in harsh locations.
