QIXING QX1196 Surface Mount Socket 4 Pin 16A IEC 60309 IP67

Description

A complete wall-mounted three-phase socket.

The QIXING QX1196 is a CEE Form surface-mount socket rated 4 pin, 16A, 400V three 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. The 4 pin configuration carries three phases and earth, with no neutral, suiting three-phase equipment. 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 QX1196 is the entry 16A three-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.

Three Phase, Weatherproof

With four pins carrying three phases and earth, the QX1196 supplies three-phase equipment at 400V and 16A without a neutral. 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 connector’s 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 QX1196 used for?
A: It is a complete wall-mounted socket in its own enclosure, used as a three-phase connection point in workshops, sheds, plant rooms and outdoor locations. The QX1196 is the 4 pin 16A 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.
