Meltric Specialty Products - Plugs / Receptacles

Sords Electric and Meltric provide safe and efficient electrical connections for industrial and commercial facilities.  Meltric products meet NFPA 70E standards and can protect lives.

Besides plugs and receptacles, Meltic can provide specialty products for electrical connections and power connections.


Meltric manufactures a wide variety of specialty products to fit specific application needs and to help users benefit from the advantages of Meltric’s switch rated DECONTACTORTM Series plugs and receptacles where ever connections may need to be made and broken.


Portable Power Distribution – Provide switch rated safety where ever connections are made

POWER DISTRIBUTION – CUSTOM SOLUTIONS


Horizontal 6-Gang Boxes

Ideal for work-site power distribution to welders and 
other portable equipment. Commonly used in shipyards 
and construction sites.




Horizontal 8-Gang Boxes

Ideal for high amperage power distribution to large equipment or to secondary power distribution boxes 
such as the Horizontal 6-Gang boxes shown above. Commonly used in shipyards.


Wall Boxes with Integral Circuit Protection

Provide extra protection with local fusing or circuit 
breakers in an integral package or in combination 
with an auxiliary bladed disconnect switch.




Dual Voltage Boxes - Non-fused

For plugging in both heavy duty equipment such as 
welders or lighter duty equipment such as power tools. Commonly used in automotive industry and other large manufacturing facilities.






Disconnect Combinations – Provide convenience and visual verification of deenergization

SAFETY SWITCH/RECEPTACLE COMBINATIONS


  • DSN Receptacle (DS is standard)
  • DB Receptacle
  • Straight Adapter (Angle is standard)
  • Non-Fused (Fused is standard)
  • Transformers
  • Reverse Service

Meltric’s non-interlocked safety switch disconnects are intended for use in power supply applications where additional over current and short circuit protection is desired. Since Decontactor™ Series products are UL and CSA Switch rated, there is no need for the receptacle to be interlocked to the switch. The load may be safely made or broken by throwing the switch lever or by simply connecting or disconnecting the plug.
The standard Meltric Safety Switch Disconnect consists of a DS Series receptacle and angle mounted and wired to a heavy duty, single throw, fusible safety switch. They can optionally be provided with DSN or DB series Decontactors, straight mounting adapters, non-fused switches, or with circuit breaker protection.

Backbox Adapter Plates – Simplify replacement of competitive devices with Decontactors

ADAPTER PLATES

Updating your facility with Decontactor™ Series plugs and receptacles is simple and affordable with Meltric’s adapter plates. They allow the mounting of Decontactors to existing boxes previously used for competitive devices. This avoids the cost and hassle of installing new boxes and performing associated re-piping and rewiring. If an adapter plate for the box you have is not listed, contact customer service and Meltric will design a new one to fit your application.



Cord Grips – Enhance strain relief and cord gripping

CORD GRIPS






WS Single Pole Welding Connectors – Fast and reliable connections

WS WELDING CONNECTORS

WS devices allow users to make fast and reliable connections of welding cables. Their spring-loaded silver contacts provide connections that are unaffected by cable movement or vibration and operate with a self-cleaning wiping action that ensures a reliable electrical connection every time.


LC Battery Connectors – Easy operation with the safety of silver-nickel butt style contacts

LC BATTERY CONNECTORS


The periodic charging of batteries for many applications (including electric boats and material handling vehicles) requires frequent connector operations. In order to avoid current interrupting on the charging contacts, a pilot contact is generally used. The pilot contact is designed to break before the main contacts, thereby signalling the circuit breaker to function.
Meltric’s LC battery connectors, are made with spring-loaded, silver-nickel butt style contacts, which are operated by means of a lever. This design ensures a superior electrical connection and the quick and easy operation of the device. The lever also provides a means of locking the units together to help prevent accidental disengagement. By contrast, many competitive battery charger connectors use sliding contacts.  Because of how they operate, sliding contacts cannot provide the electrical performance, the durability or the quick breaking capabilities of Meltric’s lever operated and spring-loaded, silver-nickel butt contacts.



Voltage/Phase Rotation Meter – Easy means of testing Meltric receptacles for voltage

PHASE ROTATION METER ASSEMBLIES


Voltage/Phase Rotation Meters offer customers an easy means of testing Meltric receptacles for voltage, as well as, motor rotation. The product consists of an inlet and handle wired to the meter. Smaller devices use standard nylon handles, while larger devices are provided with PH handles and cord-grips.

Carlo Gavazzi Proximity Switches

Carlo Gavazzi and Sords Electric offers a comprehensive range of inductive sensors - primarily used to detect metal parts and objects. These sensors are used extensively in packaging and plastics machines, assembly lines and conveyor systems. Carlo Gavazzi inductive proximity switches feature a 10 year warranty.

Carlo Gavazzi  inductive sensors and proximity switches are available in a wide variety of styles and feature both digital (SCR, transistor) and analogue outputs. We also carry a wide selection of ancillary products such as timers, zero speed relays, counters, and digital speed indicators and tachometers.

Carlo Gavazzi offers inductive sensors in cylindrical housings (from 4mm to 30 mm) with both standard and extended sensing distance and in a flat-pack housing.


Carlo Gavazzi has been producing exceptional proximity sensors for almost a half century. These high quality inductive sensors are rugged and feature EMC ratings which are amongst the highest in the industry. We’ll also go to great lengths to customize a sensor for an OEM customer’s application. Whether it’s a specific cable length, a particular type of sensor material, a specialty cable type and/or custom markings - there is no request too difficult for us to achieve. Furthermore, all Carlo Gavazzi inductive proximity sensors come standard with a

10 year warranty!





Inductive proximity sensors are employed in applications where fast, maintenance-free, wear-resistant detection of metal objects is required. They detect all ferrous and non-ferrous metals, independent of the shape of the metal and without making physical contact.

Bounce-free solid state switching 

No physical contact 

High operating frequencies

Capable of being installed in any position 

Lifetime is independent of operating frequency 

Not sensitive to vibration or dirt
