Applications
• The PlexPower enclosed breaker provides indoor and outdoor
protection and control of electrical circuits in hazardous
environments such as:
— Petroleum plants
— Chemical plants
— Refineries
— Other process facilities
• Ideal for installation in wet, corrosive environments or where
flammable gases or vapors are likely to be present.
Features
• No external conduit or cable seals required making
installations faster, easier, and less costly.
• The PlexPower enclosed breaker features a ground-breaking
design that incorporates the use of a single breaker housing
to minimize the downtime and costs associated with servicing
circuit breakers in hazardous locations.
• Standard, off-the-shelf breakers are used and the lighter
weight enclosures can be quickly opened in the field for easier
servicing. There are no special breakers to buy.
• Standard configuration includes external actuator and a nonwindow door. Factory installed options include window door,
internal actuator or alternate enclosure sizes and orientations.
• Enclosure can be easily field punched for cable glands or
conduit hubs. Optional gland plates available and must be
ordered with the enclosure for factory installation.
• Circuit breaker available in 2- or 3-pole up to 150 Amp range.
• Breaker can be padlocked in either the ON or OFF position.
• Voltage ranges from 120 to 600 volts.
• QC breaker terminal wire range #14-1/0.
• F-Frame breaker terminal wire range #14-4/0.
• Ground terminal bar provided.
• External ground lug.
• Accommodates standard Cutler-Hammer ✢ QC Series or
F-Frame Series circuit breaker individually contained in its own
housing.
