Ark•Gard® ENR Value Series (M3) Explosionproof Receptacles
ENR (M3) Receptacles are used:

With portable electrical equipment such as compressors, tools, lighting systems, and similar devices

In areas made hazardous by the presence of flammable vapors and gases or combustible dusts

Wherever portable electrical equipment is likely to be transferred from hazardous to non-hazardous areas

When power requirements do not exceed 20 amperes

FEATURES


Ark•Gard® 2 receptacle incorporates three spring-loaded slide keys that prevent the receptacle face plate from being rotated until the ENP plug is fully inserted into the receptacle; to make the connection, the ENP plug is fully inserted, and the receptacle face moved inward by pushing the plug forward; the plug is then rotated, closing the circuit; as rotation begins, the plug becomes locked in the receptacle and cannot be accidentally disengaged; in making or breaking the circuit, any resulting electrical arc is confined in the factory-sealed chamber

Factory-sealed chamber encloses the potential arcing components between two explosionproof threaded joints; these threads are specially coated to guarantee freedom of movement, which ensures on-off action; no additional seals are required

One-piece molded gasket seals cover plate and ENP plug when plug is inserted, providing full environmental protection at the receptacle face

Top-hinged cover design with 45° downward angle provides superior protection in damp, wet, and dirty locations

Field assembly is accomplished with standard tools

Use standard EDS back boxes
