Explosion-protected plugs and sockets 16–63 A
Country: · Model: Plugs and Sockets
Plugs and sockets certified to ATEX/IECEx for connecting equipment in hazardous areas. Current ratings run 16–63 A with IP66 protection. Housings are made of polyamide, stainless steel or aluminium.
Technical specifications
Specifications are taken from the manufacturer’s technical documentation. Updated .
Description
The range includes flameproof and press-protected versions, so the protection type is chosen for the zone and the process. The interlock stops anyone from inserting or pulling a plug under voltage, which removes the commonest cause of sparking in a hazardous zone. Quick-connect fittings and prewired versions shorten the installation of distribution points. Polyamide is lighter and does not corrode, while stainless steel and aluminium take heavier mechanical loads. Every version is rated IP66, so a wet or dusty site does not get in the way.
How to choose
The deciding parameter is the current rating within 16–63 A, so compare it with the load current and leave a margin. Then pick the housing material. Polyamide suits light duty, the metals suit impact and aggressive conditions. If sockets are spread over several points, order the prewired versions.

FAQ
What current ratings do these plugs and sockets have?
The range covers 16–63 A. Pick the rating by the load, with a margin.
What materials are the housings made of?
Polyamide, stainless steel or aluminium. Metal is better against impact and aggressive media, polyamide for light duty.
What does the interlock in a plug and socket do?
It prevents making or breaking the contacts under voltage. In a hazardous area this removes the risk of a spark during switching.
How do flameproof and press-protected versions differ?
They are different ways of protecting the enclosure against explosion. Which one is needed depends on the zone and the project requirements, so confirm it in the model documentation.
Are prewired options available?
Yes, prewired versions and quick-connect fittings exist. They speed up the installation of power distribution.
