LEV Series
The LEV Series includes a full offering of IEC 60309-1 and 60309-2 pin & sleeve devices including plugs, connectors, receptacles, inlets, backboxes and mechanical interlocks

The LEV Series includes a full offering of IEC 60309-1 and 60309-2 pin & sleeve devices including plugs, connectors, receptacles, inlets, backboxes and mechanical interlocks designed to simplify installation, endure the harshest environments and improve safety and productivity. Devices with Inform technology provide smarter electrical connections by integrating with Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) technology to support predictive maintenance schemes.

Mechanical Interlocks

A Look Inside LEV Series IEC 60309 Mechanical Interlocks

LEV Series mechanical interlocks are designed to be more durable and easier to assemble for the most efficient installation and superior performance in any environmen

LEV Series Mechanical Interlocks incorporate a safety disconnect switch and an IEC receptacle in a non-metallic watertight enclosure. The interlock mechanism prevents the making and breaking of power under load. Devices with Inform Technology feature local and remote monitoring. By integrating IIoT technology, users can identify disturbances that can impact machine performance and minimize unplanned downtime.

Plugs, Connectors, Inlets, & Receptacles

LEV Series plugs, connectors, inlets and receptacles provide safe and reliable power connections in any environment. Plugs and connectors with Inform Technology offer visual power indication, increasing facility safety and allowing for faster troubleshooting when there is a power problem with connected equipment.

LEV Series devices are tested to endure impact at the most extreme temperatures – guaranteeing superior performance in any environment

Simplify Installation

  • Quick Lock Pin: Designed with fewer screws to ease assembly.
  • Threaded Housing: Threaded housing design on plugs and connectors speeds installation.
  • Screwless Back Clamp: Completely screwless back clamp available for 20/30 Amp devices eliminates 2 additional screws.
  • Hinged Bottom Cover: Bottom hinged cover designed with installer in mind.

Cost Savings Calculator

With all of the above features, LEV Series IEC 60309 plugs and connectors can be wired and assembled significantly faster than competition. By entering your project details, including the number of devices to be wired and assembled, as well as your labor rate, you can see just how much time and money you can save by switching to LEV Series plugs and connectors.
