QIXING QX128 Surface Mount Socket 3 Pin 63A IEC 60309 IP67

Description

A high-current wall-mounted industrial socket.

The QIXING QX128 is a CEE Form surface-mount socket rated 3 pin, 63A, 230V single phase, with an IP67 weatherproof rating. Unlike a panel-mount socket that recesses into a flat face, this is a complete socket in its own surface-mount enclosure that bolts directly onto a wall or structure, with a built-in cable-entry gland. These are European-standard industrial connectors conforming to EN/IEC 60309-2, used wherever a robust, weatherproof, wall-mounted connection point is required.

What a Surface-Mount Socket Does

A surface-mount socket is a fixed socket supplied in its own enclosure, designed to bolt onto a wall, post or structure rather than recess into a panel. The cable enters through a gland in the enclosure, and the socket face is angled so the connected plug and its lead hang clear of the wall. The QX128 is the high-current 63A single-phase version, used as a permanent connection point in workshops, plant rooms, sheds and outdoor locations. Where the socket needs to recess into a flat panel or board instead, a panel-mount socket is used.

High-Current Single Phase

Rated 63A and 230V, the QX128 is built for demanding single-phase connections. Rated IP67, it is protected against dust and the effects of temporary immersion in water, making it suitable for outdoor, wash-down and demanding industrial locations. As an IEC 60309-2 connector it follows the international pin-and-sleeve standard, so it mates reliably with other IEC 60309 equipment of the same rating and configuration.

Keyed for Safety

The 6h clock position refers to the keyed position of the earth contact under IEC 60309, which corresponds to the standard single-phase voltage band. This keying helps ensure the socket only connects with a matching plug of the correct voltage rating and configuration.

Q: What is the QX128 used for?
A: It is a complete wall-mounted socket in its own enclosure, used as a high-current single-phase connection point in workshops, sheds, plant rooms and outdoor locations. The QX128 is the 3 pin 63A version.

Q: How is a surface-mount socket different from a panel-mount one?
A: A surface-mount socket comes in its own enclosure that bolts onto a wall or structure, with the cable entering through a gland. A panel-mount socket recesses into a flat panel or board. The choice depends on whether you are mounting onto a surface or into a panel.

Q: What does IP67 mean for this socket?
A: IP67 means it is fully protected against dust and can withstand temporary immersion in water, suiting outdoor and wash-down environments.
