Product Description
Overview
KL-DCO2 is the orange snap-back dust cover for a 150 A cam-type receptacle. Its high-impact, flame-retardant ABS body closes over the unused receptacle, while a gasket and corrosion-resistant stainless-steel hardware support NEMA 3R environmental protection. The orange lid separates auxiliary or inventory-specific circuits from common phase colors.
Why It Matters
An open panel receptacle can collect rain, dust and handling debris long before a cable is connected. This cover gives the 150 A receptacle a dedicated closure that opens with the cable connection and snaps back into place afterward. The orange finish also keeps identification visible at the panel rather than only on the cable.
Key Features
- Snap-Back Protection: The lid remains attached to the panel and returns over the receptacle after cable removal.
- NEMA 3R Seal: A supplied gasket helps protect the unused receptacle from falling rain and environmental exposure.
- Durable Construction: Flame-retardant ABS and stainless-steel hardware suit repeated operation on portable distribution equipment.
- Orange Identification: Adds a distinct identification option where common phase colors are already assigned.
- Listed Performance: UL Enclosure Types 3R environmental rating with HB / UL94 flame class.
Applications
Designed for 150 A cam-type receptacles on touring distros, generator panels, rental power equipment, industrial enclosures and temporary event-power systems.
Compatibility
Fits compatible 150 A cam-type panel receptacles using the listed three-hole, 120° mounting pattern. Verify flange dimensions and panel clearance before installation; it is not interchangeable with the larger 400 A KL-DC cover.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the practical purpose of the orange variant?
Orange gives rental houses and installers a distinct identifier for auxiliary, special-use or destination-based circuits when other colors are already occupied.
Is KL-DCO2 dimensionally the same as the other KL-DCXX2 colors?
Yes. The nine color variants share the same 150 A receptacle fit, three-hole mounting pattern and listed dimensions.
Which components resist corrosion and impact?
The body is high-impact, flame-retardant ABS, while the hinge and fastening hardware are corrosion-resistant stainless steel.
Can this cover replace KL-DCT?
No. KL-DCO2 is a gasketed snap-back cover for a 150 A receptacle. KL-DCT is a transparent polycarbonate cover for a 400 A receptacle and does not include a gasket.
