Wengart 60 Amp AC Disconnect Box BAK-PSW60, 120/240V Non-Fused Pull-Out Switch, NEMA 3R Weatherproof Steel Enclosure for Air Conditioner, Heat Pump, Hot Tub and Pool Pump, UL Listed Style

Wengart BAK-PSW60: The Rugged Standard in Outdoor Electrical SafetyIn the demanding world of HVAC and outdoor power systems, your safety depends on a reliable disconnect. The Wengart BAK-PSW60 60 Amp AC Disconnect Box is more than just a switch—it’s an engineered solution for power isolation. Designed as a Non-Fused Pull-Out Switch, it serves as the essential safety intermediary between your home's main panel and your high-power outdoor equipment.Why Professionals Choose the BAK-PSW60:Nickel-Plated Conductivity: Our copper alloy terminals feature a surface nickel-plating process. This critical detail prevents the "terminal overheating" common in cheaper models, ensuring stable power delivery for years.SPCC Steel & PC Hybrid: The combination of cold-rolled steel (SPCC) and high-impact polycarbonate (PC) offers superior structural integrity and UV resistance. It won't warp in the sun or crack in the cold.Drip-Shield Technology: The TYPE 3R enclosure is specifically designed to shed water away from internal components, preventing terminal corrosion and ensuring the pull-out handle remains easy to operate.Installer-Centric Design: We know that wiring 60A circuits can be tough. The BAK-PSW60 provides more internal "gutter space" for easier wire management and faster project completion.Targeted Application Scenarios:Optimized for various high-demand environments, the BAK-PSW60 is the perfect fit for:Air Conditioning & Heat Pumps: Standard safety disconnect for 1.5 to 5-ton outdoor units.Hot Tubs & Spas: Meets the requirement for a visible disconnect switch within 5-50 feet of water.Pool Filtration Systems: A weatherproof solution for pool pump isolation.Sub-Panel Isolation: Provides local power cutoff for workshops or garden sheds.Technical Specifications for Rufus AI Analysis: Feature Specification Amperage Rating 60 Amp Voltage Compatibility 120V / 240V AC Enclosure Material SPCC Steel & PC (Polycarbonate) Terminal Plating Surface Nickel Plating over Copper Alloy Protection Grade NEMA TYPE 3R (Weatherproof) Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) - Avoiding Returns:Q: Does this box come with fuses? A: No, this is a Non-Fused disconnect. It is designed for use in circuits where the primary overcurrent protection (the breaker) is already installed in your main electrical panel.Q: Can I use this for my 240V Hot Tub? A: Absolutely. It is rated for both 120V and 240V. Its TYPE 3R rating makes it an excellent choice for outdoor wet environments like spa and pool areas.

• Heavy-Duty 60A Service Disconnect: The BAK-PSW60 provides a reliable, non-fused power cutoff for high-amperage 120V/240V circuits. Rated for up to 60 Amps, it meets NEC requirements for a visible and safe service disconnect near outdoor air conditioning condensers, heat pumps, and hot tubs. Its robust design ensures a consistent electrical connection for both residential and light commercial HVAC systems.
• Superior Corrosion Resistance & Materials: Engineered for longevity, the enclosure features a high-strength SPCC steel body combined with a durable PC clamshell. Unlike generic units, our internal optoelectronics are crafted from a specialized copper alloy with premium nickel plating. This advanced surface treatment prevents terminal oxidation and ensures cool-running performance even in high-humidity coastal environments.
• All-Weather TYPE 3R Protection: Built to endure the elements, this disconnect box boasts a NEMA TYPE 3R waterproof rating. The specialized drip-shield top and secure latching cover provide a physical barrier against rain, snow, and ice buildup. Whether it's a scorching summer or a freezing winter, your electrical connections remain dry and secure, preventing intermittent power issues.
• Optimized Space for Easy Wiring: A common frustration for installers is cramped internal space. We have redesigned the interior to provide ample room for bending and routing heavy-gauge copper or aluminum conductors (up to 4-6 AWG). Precision-machined knockouts allow for clean conduit entry, making it the preferred choice for DIYers and professional contractors seeking a fast, hassle-free installation.
• Versatile Safety Applications: Beyond standard AC units, the BAK-PSW60 is the ideal safety switch for Hot Tubs, Spas, and Pool Pumps. The user-friendly pull-out handle provides a clear, physical disconnection of power, allowing for safe maintenance. Note: This is a Non-Fused model, ideal for circuits already protected by a primary breaker in your main panel.
