APPLICATION
Eaton’s NEMA Type 7/9 Disconnect Switches are suited for Class I, Divisions
1 & 2, Groups B, C, D; Class II, Division 1, Groups E, F, G; Class II, Division 2,
Groups F, G; Class III; and Class I, Zones 1 & 2, Groups IIB + H2, as dened by
the National Electrical Code®as well as in damp, wet or corrosive locations.
Additionally, this series is suitable for NEMA 3, 4, 4X applications. Eaton’s
NEMA Type 7/9 Disconnect should be installed, inspected, maintained and
operated by qualied and competent personnel only.
INSTALLATION
1. Select a mounting location that will provide suitable strength and rigidity
for supporting the Eaton’s NEMA Type 7/9 Disconnect Switch. Weights
and dimensions are listed below.
Figure 1
2. Securely fasten enclosure to the mounting location, and then attach
enclosure into conduit system. Install approved conduit or cable sealing
ttings in all conduit entries within 18 inches (46cm) of enclosure per the
National Electrical Code requirements.
3. For Eaton’s NEMA Type 7/9 Disconnect Switch enclosures furnished
with disconnect switch, please view Step 4. For Eaton’s NEMA Type 7/9
Disconnect Switch enclosures furnished without disconnect switch, select
appropriate disconnect switch from Table 2 below (ordered separately).
a. Using hardware provided, securely mount disconnect switch on
mounting plate with “Line” terminals on top and “Load” terminals on
bottom. Use existing holes in mounting plate; please refer to mounting
plate drawing below. Be sure to tighten screws to 3 ft.-lbs. (0.4 Kg.-m.).
Mounting Plate Drawing
Figure 2
b. The rating for each disconnect can be observed in Table 3.
4. Ensure the operator is in the OFF position and then remove the cover
bolts while securing cover. Carefully open the cover fully to prevent
damage to the machined joint ame path and cover gasket.
5. Pull wires into enclosure, making sure they are long enough to make
the required electrical connections. Install the proper wire clamps or
other approved devices to hold the wires securely in place. Install the
ground, line and load wires. Tighten the wire binding screws to torque
values shown on Table 4.
Note:
a. The internal grounding terminal shall be used as equipment
grounding means. The external terminal is only a supplemental bonding
connection.

To avoid risk of electrical shock, electrical power must be OFF before
and during product installation and maintenance. Failure to comply can
result in damage to equipment, injury or death to personnel.

CAUTION
To avoid risk of explosion, hazardous location information specifying
Class and Group listing of each device is marked on the nameplate of
each enclosure. Class and Group list for and device penetrating the
enclosure must be suitable for the classification of location in which the
enclosure is installed. Conduit sealing fittings MUST be installed in each
attached conduit run within 18 inches of the enclosure per the National
Electrical Code.
CAUTION
To avoid the risk of explosion, hammers or prying tools must
not be allowed to damage the flat machined joint surfaces or cover
gasket. Do not handle covers roughly or place them on surfaces that
might damage or scratch the flat machined joint surfaces.
To avoid the risk of explosion, do not use cover bolts as a means to
lift the enclosure. Excessive force on the partially retracted cover bolts
may damage the bolt. Use appropriate lifting method for safety.
CAUTION
ONLY DS363FX

b. Maximum wire sizes are recommended based on NEC minimum
wire bending space at each terminal per designated enclosure. Select
wire gauge per NEC standard.
c. Table 4 lists maximum wire gauges for 55°C ambient temperature.
d. Use copper wire only. Wire to be rated at 75/90°C.
6. For fusible disconnects, install Class J fuses. Contact Eaton’s
Bussmann Division for more fuse information.
7. Test wiring for good connection by performing a continuity check.
Also, check for unwanted grounds with an insulation resistance tester.
WIRING DIAGRAM
8. Make sure that operator and fork are in the OFF position.
Figure 3
9. Fully tighten all cover bolts. See Table 5.
MAINTENANCE
1. Electrical and mechanical inspections must be done on a regular basis.
It is recommended that inspections be performed a minimum of once a
year.
2. If necessary to open enclosure for inspection or service, always
disconnect primary power source and refer to cautionary statement or
nameplate before opening cover. Area must be free of ammable gases
and vapor before opening cover.
3. Perform visual check for undue heating evidenced by discoloration of
wires or other components, damage or worn parts or leakage evidenced
by water or corrosion in the interior.
4. Electrically check to make sure that all connections are clean and tight and
that contacts in the components make and break as required.
5. Mechanically check that all parts are properly assembled and operating
mechanisms move freely.
a. For more operator adjustment instructions, see Figure 4.
Fork Adjustment
1. Assemble operator into cover.
2. Measure distance from body ange to bottom toggle (Dimension A).
3. Measure distance from inside of cover to bottom of fork (Dimension B).
4. Adjust fork up or down so that (B - A - 0.12”).
5. Move breaker toggle to “off” position and operator handle to “off”
position.
6. Close cover and check breaker operation.
7. Adjust fork up or down to optimize breaker operation.
Stop Adjustment
1. Move operator to “on position.”
2. Put light pressure on handle in the “on” direction and hold in that position.
Fork should be touching toggle.
3. Turn stop screw until it touches handle.
4. Tighten stop nut.
5. Move operator to “off” position.
6. Put normal pressure on handle in the “off” direction until the handle stops.
Hold in that position. This represents the reset position.
7. Turn stop screw until it touches handle.
8. Tighten stop nut.

To avoid the risk of explosion, clean both machined joint surfaces
of body and cover before closing. Dirt or foreign material must not
accumulate on flat machined joint surfaces. Surfaces must seat fully
against each other to provide a proper explosionproof joint.

To avoid the risk of explosion, all unused conduit openings must be
closed properly with an approved plug, drain or breather such as the
Crouse-Hinds series PLG Plugs or ECD Breather/Drains. NO CONDUIT
OPENINGS ARE TO BE ADDED IN THE FIELD.
CAUTION
To avoid electrical shock and personal injury, always disconnect
primary power source before opening enclosure for inspection or service,
and lock them out.
