Lev-Lok Expansion with Right Angle Module



Leviton EXPANDS Lev-Lok® LINE WITH SMARTLOCKPRO® AND DECORA® VERSIONS PLUS COMPACT RIGHT-ANGLE SNAP IN MODULE

Patented Lock and Latch Wiring Module Design Speeds Installation in High-Traffic Areas

Little Neck, NY, December 3, 2008 - Leviton is pleased to announce the expansion of its innovative line of Lev-Lok(TM) Modular Receptacles with popular SmartLockPRO® GFCI and Decora® versions. Quick and easy to install, Lev-Lok receptacles now include a full complement of traditional, Hospital Grade and Decora devices in 15 Amp and 20 Amp ratings to fit a wide range of applications. In addition, the Lev-Lok line has been expanded with an innovative wiring module that features a space-saving right-angle design.

Lev-Lok's new low-profile, right-angle wiring module (MSTWL-A), available in solid and stranded # 12 THHN wire, is designed to conserve space in tight electrical outlet boxes, and is the ideal choice for Lev-Lok SmartLockPRO® GFCIs, as well as other applications where multiple feed-through circuits are involved. The right-angle wiring module features wires that exit from the side rather than the back of the module, conserving space and providing a more "natural fit." This makes installation and replacement of receptacles faster and easier than ever.

Lev-Lok receptacles eliminate time-consuming installation procedures. The Lev-Lok system consists of a wiring module (available in standard and right-angle versions) with wire leads and a rugged duplex receptacle with solid brass locking connection pins. Installers place the wiring module over the receptacle's locking pins, twist it clockwise and the connection is quickly secured. For fast replacement, simply turn the wiring module counter-clockwise and unlock it from the receptacle's connection pins.

Lev-Lok receptacles are designed to minimize mistakes: there is only one way to orient the wiring module. This ensures that the wire leads always mate to the same receptacle terminals during installation or replacement. The Lev-Lok system is an excellent choice for new construction, large facility additions and retrofits, especially where meeting a tight completion deadline is critical. This makes it the perfect choice for universities, hospitals, hotels and office complexes, offering contractors extremely fast and easy installation and providing maintenance managers with a simple, quick way to replace receptacles and minimize downtime.

Lev-Lok receptacles are available in brown, ivory, white, black, blue, gray, red, and light almond. Accessories include complementary plastic, nylon and metal wallplates in single- to four-gang configurations, in matching colors, which can be hot-stamped or engraved. Devices feature a 10 Year Limited Warranty. For more information, contact Leviton Manufacturing, 59-25 Little Neck Parkway, Little Neck, NY 11362, Phone: 1-800-323-8920, www.leviton.com.
