RACO Electric Actuator Motor Quick Disconnect/Connector

Safe, Reliable Connections for Hard-to-Reach Actuators

Often times, electro-mechanical equipment is physically located in an area that is very hard to get to, or is in an ambient environment not suitable for lengthy installations nor replacements. Electric actuators are routinely installed in not-so-maintenance-friendly locations and even in places where dropping a wrench or screwdriver can be costly. RACO can provide an optional assembly to make the electrical and mechanical connections to the motor, safely and reliably. This design is compliant with UL, CSA, and NFPA70E.

Provides the safety of a disconnect switch

The RACO Quick Disconnect/Connector design is such that safe load breaking is achieved by a push button with spring loaded contacts. The built in arc chamber also helps to prevent outside exposure to arc flash. They are also approved by NEC as a Line-of sight Disconnect. Thus, no mechanical interlocks nor auxiliary disconnects are required. The RACO Electric Quick Disconnect/Connector is a safe and convenient Plug And Play device for use with the Actuators.

Reliable and Durable Performance You Can Trust

The RACO Motor Quick Disconnect/Connector isn’t just durable, it is engineered to meet strict compliance standards while delivering long-term reliability. Likewise the RACO Electric Actuator is constructed to these high standards as well.
