Why Choose the Wöhner 32401 EQUES 60Classic Busbar Adapter?
The Wöhner 32401 is a compact 16 A busbar adapter designed for the safe mechanical and electrical connection of motor starter assemblies to the Wöhner 60Classic busbar system. Part of the EQUES 60Classic range, it supports efficient installation of commercially available motor protection and switching devices in industrial control panels.
This three-pole adapter is designed for direct starters including the Allen-Bradley 140M-RC2E, Eaton PKZM0, Siemens S00 and Schneider Electric GV2 with spring terminals. Its removable upper section allows the mounted assembly to be placed in a test position, where it locks securely and disconnects from the primary power supply.
With an IEC rated current of 16 A, a 690 V AC rated voltage and factory-fitted AWG 12 (4 mm²) leads, the Wöhner 32401 provides a reliable connection for compact motor circuits. CrossLink Technology and a click-on mechanism help simplify assembly while maintaining touch-safe installation.
Key Advantages
- Compact busbar adapter for complete motor starter circuits.
- 16 A IEC rated current for industrial motor control applications.
- Compatible with selected Allen-Bradley, Eaton, Siemens and Schneider Electric devices.
- Removable upper section provides a secure disconnected test position.
- CrossLink Technology supports fast and safe installation.
- Ultrasonically sealed conductor ends provide a dependable electrical connection.
Key Features
- Wöhner EQUES 60Classic series.
- Three-pole 16 A busbar adapter.
- 45 × 200 mm body format.
- Removable upper section for testing and maintenance.
- Factory-fitted AWG 12 (4 mm²) leads.
- Click mechanism for installation onto the busbar system.
- Compatible with standard flat and section busbars.
- Halogen-free construction for industrial panel applications.
Safe Motor Starter Integration for Industrial Systems
The Wöhner 32401 enables motor protection switches and associated switching components to be mounted directly onto a 60Classic busbar system. This reduces conventional wiring requirements and creates a compact, organised motor control assembly with a secure electrical connection to the power distribution system.
When the removable assembly is moved into its test position, it locks mechanically and disconnects safely from the primary energy supply. This supports functional testing and maintenance while helping panel builders create efficient and serviceable industrial control systems.
Typical Applications
- Direct-on-line motor starter assemblies.
- Industrial machinery control panels.
- Motor protection and switching circuits.
- OEM automation equipment.
- Modular switchgear and distribution boards.
- Wöhner 60Classic busbar installations.
