The Walther-Werke wall socket type 130 is an industrial connector for outdoor use, designed for a rated voltage of 400 V and a rated current of 32 A. The device features a 5-pole plug connection (5P) and is specified for an operating time of 6 hours (6h). The socket is made of PA6 material, a thermoplastic polymer suitable for its mechanical strength and weather resistance. The construction allows for external mounting, with the cable entry integrated at the top to ensure a secure and watertight connection to the supply cable.

Industrial socket with protection class IP44 is suitable for use in environments with increased humidity or splash water exposure. Protection class IP44 means the device is protected against solid objects starting from dust and against splash water from any direction, making it suitable for outdoor use or in damp indoor areas such as workshops, production facilities, or warehouses. The socket is not designed for permanent, continuous operation, but for time-limited applications within the specified 6-hour operating period.

Functions and equipment in detail include a screw connection, ensuring a secure and firm connection to the supply cable. The cable entry is positioned at the top, allowing flexible installation, especially when mounted vertically on walls. The wall socket is designed for external mounting, enabling direct installation on exterior walls or in suitable switch cabinets. The PA6 material provides high mechanical stability and resistance to environmental influences.

Technology explained simply shows that the socket is designed for use in industrial or commercial applications where high current and voltage are required. The 5-pole configuration (5P) includes the three phase conductors (L1, L2, L3), the neutral conductor (N), and the protective earth conductor (PE), which is necessary for three-phase systems with protective earth connection. The operating voltage of 400 V is the standard voltage for industrial three-phase networks in Europe. The 6-hour operating time (6h) refers to the maximum allowable duration of current supply under rated load, to avoid overheating and material fatigue.

Compatibility and accessories include use with compatible wall sockets, such as the 32 32A5P 6H400V wall socket TwinCONTACT IP44, which is also suitable for outdoor applications. This combination enables flexible and secure installation in industrial environments.

Mounting and installation is done via external mounting, with the cable entry positioned at the top. The screw terminals allow for a secure and durable connection to the supply cable. Installation requires no special tools other than a screwdriver or pliers to secure the supply cables. The wall socket is designed for vertical mounting on walls, with the cable entry facing upwards to ensure a watertight connection.

Operational advantages lie in the high mechanical stability of the PA6 material, the secure screw connection, and the IP44 protection class, which enables safe use in damp or splash water-exposed environments. The 5-pole configuration ensures compatibility with three-phase systems with protective earth, which is crucial for safety in industrial operations. The socket is designed for a limited operating time of 6 hours, making it particularly suitable for temporary or intermittent applications.

The socket is not intended for use in explosive atmospheres or environments with aggressive chemicals.
