DECONTACTOR™ Series switch rated plugs and receptacles are ideal for connecting
power to hoist systems. They ensure safety and enable plug and play
hoist change-outs.
An electrically safe work condition is ensured even
when disconnecting under load plus NFPA 70E compliance is greatly simplified.
The DECONTACTOR™ Advantages |
||
 |
Switch ratings ensure safe load breaking/making – even in overload situations. |
 |
| Decontactors
are switch rated up to 200A & 60 hp. They provide short circuit make & withstand protection up to 100kA. |
||
|
Plug & play simplicity allows any qualified employee to quickly connect and disconnect electrical equipment. |
 |
Specially trained electrical workers are not required for load making/breaking. Downtime related to equipment change-outs can be reduced by up to 50%. |
||
|
Separation of the plug & receptacle provides verification of deenergization. |
 |
| Voltage testing is not required. Visible contact separation proves the power is off. | ||
|
||
|
Dead front construction prevents exposure to live parts and arc flash hazards. |
|
The need for flash protection boundaries and cumbersome PPE is eliminated. Decontactors maintain a NFPA 70E 'hazard risk category' equal to zero. |
||
|
Lockout provisions facilitate easy compliance with lockout/tagout requirements. |
 |
| Only
your lock and tag are needed, no additional mechanisms are required.
(Provisions are standard on the plug and optional on the receptacle.) |

|
NEC, UL & CSA Compliance |
