Why it Matters

Made for chemical exposure
The chemical-resistant orange housing is formulated to withstand corrosive splashes and aggressive cleaning agents that would degrade a standard socket, and the high-visibility orange makes the outlet easy to spot in busy plant. The IP66 rating means the enclosure is fully sealed against dust and powerful water jets, so it holds up in washdown zones, chemical stores and processing areas. The ABS body operates across an ambient range of -25 to 75°C.

Straightforward, safe installation
Surface mounting with screw terminals rated for 1.5-6mm² conductors keeps wiring secure under vibration, and the 2 x M20 / 1 x M25 conduit entries give flexible cable routing. The integrated switch lets users isolate connected equipment locally, adding a layer of control and safety on site. At 204mm high by 101mm wide and 83mm deep, it mounts neatly onto walls, posts and plant. Phosphor bronze pins provide durable, low-resistance contact for a long service life.
