Industrial Watertight Receptacle
The Hubbell HBL69W47 is a flanged locking receptacle built for wet and wash-down environments. Its UL Type 4X rating suits food processing plants, marine facilities and outdoor equipment installations where water ingress must be prevented.
Impact Resistant PBT Housing
The lid, cover plate and receptacle body are moulded from impact resistant PBT thermoplastic. A thermoplastic elastomer seal combines with stainless steel hardware and corrosion resistant connection points to maintain the watertight barrier through repeated mating cycles.
FD Box or Panel Mounting
The unit mounts to standard FD or FS boxes and can also be panel mounted to a flat surface. Installers must verify box compatibility and ensure the gasket seats evenly; uneven torque on the stainless fasteners is the most common cause of seal failure.

Questions about this item
How often should the PBT lid and thermoplastic elastomer seal on the HBL69W47 be inspected or replaced in a wash-down environment?
Inspect the impact-resistant PBT lid and thermoplastic elastomer seal at each scheduled shutdown; replace them if cracks, compression set or chemical damage are visible, because the watertight UL Type 4X rating depends on their integrity.
What is the first limit reached when the HBL69W47 runs continuously at full load in a high-ambient-temperature panel?
The stainless-steel hardware and corrosion-resistant connection points will reach their maximum allowable temperature rise before any other component, so monitor terminal temperature to stay within the device’s rated thermal envelope.
How much heat does the HBL69W47 dissipate when it is energised all day in a sealed enclosure?
Heat dissipation equals the I²R loss across the receptacle’s contacts and terminals; with the watertight seal preventing airflow, the enclosure must be sized to reject that loss without exceeding the 47 and 69 reference ratings.
