CETAC Flush Mount 16A IP67: PCE Safety and Quality
When you work with electricity in industrial environments, outdoors or in wet areas such as machine rooms of swimming pools, the quality of materials is not a luxury, it is a necessity for safety. The Austrian brand PCE 's 16A (230V) CETAC Tilted Flush Mount Socket is designed to exceed expectations where generic sockets fail.
Unlike cheap imported sockets that often suffer from heat distortion or water seepage at the joint, this model guarantees a watertight and durable connection thanks to its highly engineered Polyamide 6 construction.
why choose this PCE single-phase socket?
PCE is a world leader in industrial sockets. By choosing this model, you benefit from:
- Total IP67 Protection: It's not just "splashproof". IP67 certification means this socket is totally dustproof and can withstand temporary immersion in water. Ideal for areas where pressure hosing or flooding is a risk.
- Tilt Ergonomics (10°): A slight 10 degree tilt design allows the plug to fit more naturally. This reduces mechanical stress on the cable and prevents excessive bending, prolonging the life of your installation.
- High Conductivity Contacts: The internal pins are made of a copper-zinc alloy that ensures smooth current transmission, preventing overheating typical of high continuous power connections.
- Mechanical Resistance: Withstands shocks, drops and UV exposure without crystallising or breaking.
Frequently Asked Questions about the CETAC 16A IP67 Socket
is it compatible with plugs of other brands?
Yes, totally. This socket complies with the international standard IEC 60309 (EEC standard). Any 16A 2P+T (blue) male plug on the market will fit perfectly, although we recommend using PCE plugs to guarantee maximum watertightness.
what does the 6h time position mean?
Indicates the position of the earth pin (the thickest one). 6h is the universal standard for 200-250V sockets. It ensures that you cannot connect a 110V or 400V machine to this socket by mistake.
do I need special tools to mount it?
No. It is easily installed in switchboards, distribution boxes or machinery. You will need a screwdriver for the terminals and to make the 65x65mm (approx) cutout if you are going to embed it in a new surface.
