Spring loaded protection cover with connector retaining device

Due to a completely new manufacturing process, the X-CONTACT® sleeve obtains resilient properties based solely on its material characteristics, without the need to use any additional spring elements. Thanks to the shape of the X-CONTACT® sleeve, a particularly safe contact closure can be achieved.

Mennekes Panel Sockets

Plugs, sockets, appliance inlets and interlocked sockets conforming to the latest requirements of British and European standards. The insulator outer casing and interiors are manufactured from Amaplast (polycarbonate) for excellent mechanical performance from -25 to +55°C (ambient temperature). This material provides good electrical insulation and will meet the requirements of most industrial environments.
Contact tubes and pins are made of brass. To prevent incorrect connection, the earth contact is in a different position, relative to the safety key way on each socket outlet, for each voltage. All types are colour coded by voltage and are suitable for 50/60Hz operation. Products are type tested to VDE.
These through panel mounting sockets are supplied with a spring return cover, which will latch with a mating plug for secure connection.

Features include:

Fully shrouded terminals
Ribbed flange for additional strength
Supplied with sealing gasket
