Benefits of Hazardous Location Multipin Plugs and Receptacles
Protection for Most Gas and Dust Environments
MELTRIC hazardous location multipin devices are specially designed with industrial duty casings that withstand harsh environments and rough handling protecting your connections while providing a means of connecting multiple circuits and/or control monitoring signals through a single device.
MELTRIC's unique contact design eliminates the limitations of brass pin and sleeve contacts and maintains the integrity of the connection over thousands of operations.
Spring-loaded butt contacts ensure and maintain optimal contact pressure. The impacts of wear and manufacturing variations that affect pin and sleeve contact performance are eliminated.
Silver-nickel contact material provides excellent conductivity, even in harsh environments like wastewater or chemical plants, and its electrical properties do not degrade over time like brass.
Spring-assisted terminals automatically compensate for the effects of thermal cycling, vibration, and strand settlement that cause loosening of the connection to the conductor and subsequent problems due to over-heated terminals.
MELTRIC electrical contacts are backed by a 5-year warranty.
Use MELTRIC Hazardous Location Multipin devices’ to connect entire systems or sub-systems with combinations of multiple fractional hp motors and associated control and signal circuits. Their plug and play simplicity makes electrical work for initial commissioning and future relocation of equipment a breeze.
Standard locking provisions protect against unintended connections and disconnections.
PXN12c Locking Provision
DXN25c/DXN37c Locking Provision
Prevents unintended connection with lid closed
Prevents unintended connection or disconnection
The locking pawl on the PXN12c allows the receptacle lid to be locked in the closed position to prevent insertion of a plug. The locking pin on the DXN25c and DXN37c performs the same function and additionally provides a convenient LOTO means, as well as the ability to lock the devices in the connected position.
