Overview

The Woodhead Watertite® Connector with Locking Blade (SKU: 27W76) is engineered for robust and reliable power connections in demanding industrial environments. This 3-pole, 4-wire connector features a NEMA L16-20 configuration, rated for 3-phase, 480V applications at 20A. Its IP67 IEC rating ensures superior protection against water and dust ingress, making it suitable for high-pressure washdown (up to 1000psi) and environments with vapor and contaminants. The locking blade mechanism provides a secure, vibration-resistant connection, crucial for high-motion applications. The F3 body size cord grip accommodates a 3/4" cable diameter, offering effective strain relief and maintaining seal integrity. Constructed with NEo-TEX® Paracril OZO rubber for the outer housing and grommet, nickel-plated brass for plug blades and connector contacts, and stainless steel face screws, this connector is built for durability. The internal components include tri-drive terminal screws for versatile wiring, a floating blade construction for self-alignment and optimal electrical connection, and a transparent wiring guide for verification. Operating temperature ranges from a minimum of -40°C to a maximum continuous of 75°C. The connector meets NEMA 1, 3, 4, 4X, 5, 6, 6P, and 12 ratings, and IEC IP ratings up to IP67. It is UL recognized (File No. E10176) and CSA certified (File No. LR6837). Applications include manufacturing plants, construction sites, food & beverage facilities, and petrochemical plants where reliable, wet-location connectivity is essential. Woodhead, a Molex brand, ensures field-proven reliability and ease of installation.
