Larson Electronics EPCS-TSW.20A-EPO.20A Explosion Proof Outlet with On/Off Tumbler Switch – 20 Amp Rated – Double Gang

Description:

The Larson Electronics EPCS-TSW.20A-EPO.20A is an explosion proof power outlet with an explosion proof tumbler switch that provides durable and secure weatherproof power connection for portable or stationary electrical devices and equipment in locations where equipment is susceptible to wet and corrosive environments. Choose 125 V 1 HP or 250 V 2HP.

The 20 amp rated power receptacle with on/off switch is ideal for operators seeking a high quality, wet area rated power receptacle suitable for use in industrial and manufacturing applications. The unit`s power receptacle is constructed of copper free aluminum and the housing is malleable iron. The unit is factory sealed and any arcing is safely contained with the interior of the receptacle. The receptacle contacts are deep recessed to avoid accidental contact and will not be energized by non explosion proof plugs to preserve explosion proof protection in hazardous environments. Ordinary location plugs will NOT activate this explosion proof receptacle.

The receptacle`s iron housing is finished in a triple-coat zinc electroplate, chromate and epoxy powder coat while the receptacle is finished with an epoxy powder coat. This unit is designed to withstand wet and corrosive conditions such as those found in docks and shipyards and comes with a spring loaded receptacle door to prevent ingress of water and contaminants when the unit is not in use.

The power receptacle is constructed of non sparking aluminum and finished with an epoxy powder coating while the housing is constructed of triple coated malleable iron for durability and added corrosion resistance. The internal receptacle plug contacts are constructed of brass and designed to maintain constant pressure along their entire length for superior connectivity. The plug receptacle is deeply recessed to prevent accidental contacts and designed for twist lock plug insertion to provide secure connections. A neoprene seal fitted inside the connector receptacle seals against the plug when inserted to provide positive sealing against water ingress. A spring loaded receptacle door provides an automatic weather-tight seal when the plug is removed. In standard installations within the hazardous location area, threaded rigid pipe is brought to the outlet and the outlet is affixes to a mounting surface.

A 20-amp rated exposion proof on/off switch allows operators to control power to the receptacle. This particular unit is rated at 20 amps and accepts currents ranging from 120-277VAC. The wiring hub is offered in 1/2″ or 3/4″ and the unit is a feed through model. The unit has a rocker switch which allows locking of the ON/OFF position. The switch is constructed of non-sparking aluminum body and is triple coated. The lever is connected to a threaded stainless steel shaft that passese through the faceplate. This front level rotary style switch allows for padlocking in the on or off posistion. The entire unit is completely corrosion resistant. The unit box, switch, and face plate are all included with the product.

This outlet is a mate for the Larson Electronics EPP-15A and EPP-20-A explosion proof plugs and is compatible with all the Larson Electronics explosion proof lights we make with an explosion proof plug.

Options: This unit is available in a feed through or dead end options. The feed through option includes a 1/2″ hub on either end of the receptacle and allows the source to power the receptacle while wired through the unit. The dead end option terminates the current at the receptacle. Please choose your option below.

Circuit breaking protection: This unit`s receptacle is designed to safely contain any arcs between the internal contacts that may be created within the receptacle housing.

Inter-Compatibility: These units are compatible with Crouse Hind? plugs under catalogue number “”ENP5151” and Hubble-Killark Acceptor? plugs under catalogue number “UGP-20231,UGP-20232 “. Due to possible manufacturer changes we cannot guarantee interchangability although we have made every effort to ensure cross compatibility correctness.

Suggested Applications: Areas Where Ignitable Vapors Or Gases May Be Present, Manufacturing, Industrial, Commercial, Docks, Shipyards, Shipping Ports and other similar ship to shore applications as well as any application requiring a wet area suitable and highly durable source of secure power connection.
