Markham,ON—September 25, 2006—TURCK introduces
new 7/8-16UN minifast ® explosion-proof feed-through receptacles. The 2
to 6-
wire receptacles provide a safe and effi cient way to implement explosion-proof
protection in Class I, Division 2 hazardous areas for all industries. The feed-through
installs directly in standard conduit entries in explosion-proof enclosures
without requiring a poured seal, conduit or extensive wiring. An incorporated
minifast quick-disconnect eliminates fi eld terminations and is compatible with
TURCK’s FM approved cordsets.
The feed-through is fully potted with a force-resistant compound tested to
9,000 psi; exceeding FM requirements by 50 percent. The high-quality, 316 stainless
steel housing and keyed connector eliminate incorrect wiring and accomodates
standard power in hazardous locations. These connectors provide NEMA 1, 3, 4,
6P and IEC IP 67 protection.
