Hammond AKU ABB Operating Handle Adapter Kit, Steel Gray

The AKU is an operator adapter kit in Hammond's Flange Disconnect Operator Adaptor Kits range, listed for ABB Controls operating handles. It suits panel builders and electricians fitting an ABB flange mounted operating mechanism to a Hammond enclosure with a universal cutout.

In the series selection table the AKU row covers two ABB Controls operator references:

• Disconnect Switch: DSFHN-HS12
• Circuit Breaker: K7FHD-HS12

Hammond's Flange Disconnect Operator Adaptor Kits are used to adapt flange mounted operating mechanisms to all Hammond enclosures with universal cutouts. The kits include an adaptor plate and all of the required parts, with instructions, to interlock the main door with the operator mechanism. With the kit in place the ABB operating handle and the enclosure main door are interlocked, so the door is tied to the state of the operator mechanism.

The AKU is steel with a gray finish (Operator Adapter kit - Steel/Gray; short description N12 MODULAR DISCONNECT). Shipping weight is 3.55 lbs (1.61 kg), it is packed in a bag, and it is listed as RoHS and REACH compliant. For Allen Bradley 1494F and D operators the series lists the AK1494FD kit instead, and a blank plate (BPAK) is offered to cover the flange cutout in Hammond universal type disconnect enclosures when no operator is fitted.
