Product Description

Overview

KL-DCO is the orange weatherproof snap-back cover for a compatible 400 A cam-type panel receptacle. A high-impact, flame-retardant ABS body, corrosion-resistant stainless-steel hardware and a supplied gasket form a durable closure for the unused receptacle. The standard 57.3 mm square frame supports retrofit installation, and the orange lid separates special-use receptacles from common phase colors.

Why It Matters

Panel receptacles may remain exposed through outdoor staging, transport and long periods between connections. The hinged lid stays attached to the enclosure and closes over the receptacle as soon as the feeder is removed, helping exclude falling rain, dust and debris. The orange finish keeps the circuit-identification cue visible directly at the connection point.

Key Features

  • Snap-Back Closure: The hinged lid remains attached to the panel and covers the receptacle after cable removal.
  • Gasketed NEMA 3R Protection: The supplied gasket helps resist falling rain and outdoor exposure when correctly installed.
  • Retrofit Frame: The standard 57.3 mm square frame and 38 mm mounting centers suit compatible 400 A cam-type receptacles.
  • Orange Identification: Distinguishes special-use circuits when common phase colors are already allocated.
  • Listed Performance: UL Enclosure Types 3R environmental rating with HB / UL94 flame class.

Applications

Designed for 400 A cam-type receptacles on touring distros, generator panels, rental power equipment, industrial enclosures and temporary event-power systems.

Compatibility

Fits compatible 400 A cam-type panel receptacles using the listed 57.3 mm frame and 38 x 38 mm mounting-center pattern. It is not interchangeable with the smaller circular KL-DCXX2 cover for 150 A receptacles.

Frequently Asked Questions

When would an orange snap-back cover be selected?

Orange can identify auxiliary, special-use or destination-based receptacles where common phase colors are already assigned.

What mounting geometry is shared by the orange KL-DC cover?

It shares the family's 57.3 mm square frame, four 6.5 mm fixing holes and 38 x 38 mm center spacing.

How is the orange cover built for field service?

It uses a high-impact, flame-retardant ABS body, corrosion-resistant stainless-steel hardware and a gasketed mounting frame.

Is the orange 400 A cover larger than the KL-DCXX2 family?

Yes. KL-DCO uses the 57.3 mm square 400 A frame and 53 mm lid, while the 150 A KL-DCO2 uses a smaller circular mounting arrangement.
