HEAVY DUTY INDUTRIAL PLUGS AND SOCKETS

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
......................................................................................................................................................

For years SCAME has been offering a wide range of high-quality industrial plugs and sockets complying with IEC 60309-1 and IEC 60309-2 International standards, gaining a leading position in the domestic and export markets.
SCAME's industrial plugs and sockets are reliable, robust, easy to wire and provide outstanding resistantce to weathering and to chemicals. All of which assures safe operation, even in the most adverse environmental conditions.

This latest generation of industrial plugs, connectors and sockets outlets extends and completes the comprehensive range of SCAME's plugs and sockets.
Completely new and internationally patented technical and constructional features have been added to the EUREKA-HD Series.
These features, illustrated in the following pages, are of course joined to high quality functional characteristics, reliability, safety and a long life in even the most exacting operating conditions.
An outstanding advantage of the EUREKA-HD Series plugs and sockets - and one which distinguishes it from all other plugs and sockets manufactured up to this time - is the extraordinary ease and speed with which the contacts can be cabled and inspected.
Using EUREKA-HD Series plugs and sockets is therefore highly recommended whrever the electrical contractor considers quick and easy cabling and frequent inspection of the contacts to be important factors in management of the installation work.

WATERTIGHT - IP67
......................................................................................................................................................

Watertight design and construction meet stringent IP67 internal protection standards.
Rugged thermoplastic housings resist impact or abuse and provide excellent corrosion resistance. Unique SCAME strain relief grip and sealing system assure superior cable retention and watertight conductor termination. Ideal for outdoor, wet marine and washdown applications. Unique 75% faster assembly with SNAP-ON handle locking, and cable grip system.

SPLASHPROOF - IP44
......................................................................................................................................................

Suitable for indoor use where splashing liquids and other contaminants may interfere with electrical connections. Ideal for most heavy commercial applications and light industrial applications. Available 16A, 20A, 30A and 32A Amp ratings.

CONFIGURATION
......................................................................................................................................................

It is impossible to mismate (non interchangiability) different voltages of the IEC 60309-2 Standard Devices.

Device size determines current rating
Each voltage grouping is a different size so they are easily distinguishable for compatibility.

All IEC 60309 devices are color-coded
Each voltage grouping has its own distinct colour coding for mating compatibility.

Every IEC 60309-2 mating plug grounding pin is a mirror image of the female device
Devices of differing voltages cannot be mated to one another.

The Female receptacles and connectors have a "clock face" voltage polarization
A "keyway" female housing notch is always at 6 o'clock reference position.
Earth contact (sleeve) position on this "clockface" establishes voltage polarization. (ie. "7h" = 7 o'clock ground sleeve position). Male pin position are mirror image.
