Mennekes 31 16A 5P 6H 400V wall socket TwinCONTACT IP44 content_copy

The Mennekes wall socket type 31 is an industrial CEE connector with a rated voltage of 400 V and a rated current of 16 A. It features five contacts (5P) and is designed for a duty cycle of six hours (6H). The device is designed as a wall socket and is suitable for use in industrial facilities as well as in areas where a safe and reliable power supply is required. The socket is equipped with TwinCONTACT technology, enabling a quick and secure connection without the need for screws or additional tools.

TwinCONTACT technology
The TwinCONTACT technology enables a screwless connection method, where conductor connections are made via spring clamps. These clamps are splash-proof and ensure a stable electrical connection. Installation is carried out from the outside, making it possible to install the device even in existing installations without major effort. The connection opening is located at the top, which facilitates cabling in typical industrial environments.

Protection rating IP 44
The wall socket is equipped with protection rating IP 44, meaning it is protected against splashing water from all directions and against solid foreign objects with a diameter of at least 1 mm. This protection rating makes the device suitable for use outdoors or in damp indoor areas, for example in production halls, warehouses, or construction sites. The enclosure and mounting parts are made of Amaplast, a robust plastic suitable for industrial applications.

Applications
The wall socket type 31 is used in industrial environments where a reliable and fast power supply is required for mobile devices, tools, or machines. It is particularly suitable for applications involving frequent connections and disconnections, as the TwinCONTACT technology allows for quick installation and removal. The IP 44 protection rating also makes it suitable for outdoor installations or damp indoor areas where splashing water or dust may occur.

Compatibility and accessories
The wall socket is compatible with CEE connectors according to DIN 0623. It can be connected to matching CEE plugs that also comply with the DIN 0623 standard. The device is grey in colour, with electrical colour coding optionally available to facilitate assignment to specific circuits. The mounting parts are made of Amaplast, a material known for its mechanical strength and chemical resistance in industrial applications.

Installation and mounting
Mounting is done from the outside, allowing the wall socket to be installed even in existing installations without major modifications. The connection opening is positioned at the top, which simplifies cabling. The screwless connection method reduces installation time and minimizes the need for tools. The spring clamps ensure a secure and durable connection for the conductors.

Operational advantages
The screwless connection method of the TwinCONTACT technology reduces installation time and minimizes error sources during cabling. The IP 44 protection rating ensures high reliability in damp or dusty environments. The use of Amaplast for the enclosure and mounting parts ensures high mechanical stability and durability. The wall socket is designed for a duty cycle of six hours, which is sufficient for industrial use.
