Eaton L2230PWBK watertight locking plug - IP67
Part Number: L2230PWBK
Quick Summary
Watertight locking plug provides dependable ingress protection for industrial power connections used in harsh environments. However, many installations struggle with moisture ingress, wash-downs, and complex field wiring that can compromise safety and uptime. This L2230PWBK variant offers IP67-rated protection, RoHS compliance, and cULus listing, along with a four-pole L22-30 configuration for 277/480V systems, making it suitable for heavy-duty motors and pumps. Its back-wiring method and a cord diameter range of 0.43-1.15 in simplify termination, while a Santoprene seal and nickel-plated brass contacts deliver durable, vibration-resistant performance. For procurement teams, this combination translates to fewer component mismatches, faster installation, and improved regulatory compliance across industrial facilities.

Watertight locking design with IP67 protection prevents moisture entry and corrosion, reducing downtime and extending service life in wash-down environments. This directly lowers maintenance costs and improves equipment availability for outdoor enclosures and production lines. The four-pole L22-30, 277/480V, 30A configuration supports three-phase motors and pumps, enabling correct phase connections and safer startups with consistent performance across manufacturing workflows. Back wiring for #18-10 AWG simplifies field terminations, speeds up installations, and reduces termination errors while the 20 lbf-inch torque rating ensures secure, vibration-resistant connections in high-motion environments. Nickel-plated brass contacts and a Santoprene seal provide durable, corrosion-resistant electrical paths and dependable sealing against dust and chemicals. RoHS compliance and cULus listing streamline regulatory adherence, expanding market access and reducing audit risk for global projects. The nylon face/body construction combines toughness with lightweight handling, aiding quick servicing and replacements when needed.

FAQs
For panel installation, use back wiring with #18-10 AWG conductors. Ensure terminal torque reaches 20 lbf-inch to maintain secure connections. The four-pole L22-30 configuration supports 277/480V, 30A three-phase circuits, and IP67 sealing helps protect against wash-downs and dust ingress. Provide adequate clearance for mating and ensure correct polarity to prevent mis-wiring.
IP67 rating indicates complete protection against dust and immersion in water up to 1 meter for up to 30 minutes, which significantly reduces ingress-related failures in wash-down areas. Combined with the Santoprene seal and nickel-plated brass contacts, this plug maintains electrical integrity, lowers corrosion risk, and enhances long-term reliability in harsh industrial settings.
Yes. The L2230PWBK is a four-pole, L22-30 configuration designed for 277/480V three-phase circuits up to 30A. This makes it ideal for motors, pumps, and other heavy-load equipment, providing correct phase alignment and robust, code-compliant connections in demanding environments.
The L2230PWBK is RoHS compliant and cULus listed, which supports regulatory conformity in many international markets. Its IP67 protection and NEMA compatibility (4X/6/6P) further help meet sector requirements for equipment intended for outdoor or wash-down applications, reducing risk during audits and product approvals.
The locking mechanism provides secure mating under vibration, reducing connection failures and re-seating costs. Back wiring speeds installation and simplifies field terminations, cutting commissioning time. The IP67 seal minimizes ingress-related maintenance, and RoHS/cULus compliance lowers compliance risk, delivering faster payback through reduced downtime and maintenance expenditures.
