QIXING QX216 Panel Mount Angle Socket 5 Pin 125A IEC 60309 IP67

Description

The highest-rated angled panel socket.

The QIXING QX216 is a CEE Form panel-mount angle socket rated 5 pin, 125A, 400V three phase, with an IP67 weatherproof rating. It is a fixed socket – mounted through a panel or wall face – with the inlet angled at 45 degrees so the connected plug and its cable exit at an angle rather than straight out. The 5 pin configuration carries three phases, neutral and earth, suiting heavy three-phase equipment that also requires a neutral. These are European-standard industrial connectors conforming to EN/IEC 60309-2, used wherever a robust, weatherproof, panel-mounted connection is required. At 125A this is the highest-rated socket in the angle range.

What an Angle Panel Socket Does

A panel-mount socket is a fixed socket installed through a wall or panel face, with the contacts facing outward to receive a plug. The angled version sets the inlet at 45 degrees, so the plug and its trailing cable exit at an angle rather than projecting straight out from the panel. The QX216 is the highest-rated 125A three-phase version, used as a fixed connection point on distribution boards, equipment panels, pillars and walls where the angled exit keeps the cable tidy and reduces strain.

High-Current Three Phase with Neutral

With five pins carrying three phases, neutral and earth, the QX216 supplies three-phase equipment at 400V and 125A where a neutral is also required. This makes it suited to heavy three-phase loads such as large motors, distribution and site power that need access to a neutral conductor. The 45-degree body helps route the connected lead neatly and can reduce mechanical strain on the plug where space in front of the panel is tight. 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 QX216 used for?
A: It is a panel or wall-mounted fixed socket with a 45-degree angled inlet, used as a high-current three-phase connection point with a neutral, where the plug and cable need to exit at an angle. The QX216 is the 5 pin 125A version.

Q: What is the difference between the 5 pin QX216 and the 4 pin QX212?
A: The QX216 has 5 pins (three phases, neutral and earth), while the QX212 has 4 pins (three phases and earth, no neutral). Both are 125A 400V angled panel sockets.

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.
