FAMATEL 13316 Portable Phase Inverter Plug 16A 5P IP67

The FAMATEL 13316 is a high-performance portable industrial plug equipped with an integrated phase inverter, designed to facilitate quick and safe adjustments to motor rotation directions. Engineered for a 16A current rating and a 5-pin configuration, this connector is built to provide stable and secure power transmission in challenging industrial settings. Its robust construction and IP67 ingress protection rating ensure that the device remains fully operational even when exposed to dust, dirt, or temporary immersion in water, making it an essential component for professional electrical setups.

Advantages

The primary benefit of the FAMATEL 13316 lies in its integrated phase inversion mechanism, which allows users to swap phases without the need for complex rewiring or additional adapters. This feature significantly reduces downtime during the installation or maintenance of three-phase equipment. Furthermore, the IP67 rating guarantees superior protection against environmental hazards, ensuring long-term reliability in outdoor or wet conditions. The ergonomic design and high-quality materials used in its manufacturing provide a secure grip and long service life, even under frequent use in demanding industrial environments.

Suitable for

• Industrial machinery and motor connections
• Construction sites requiring temporary power distribution
• Outdoor electrical installations
• Workshops and manufacturing facilities
• Equipment where phase sequence correction is frequently required

When it may not be suitable

This plug is specifically designed for 16A industrial systems and is not compatible with standard household electrical outlets or lower-amperage equipment. It should not be used in environments exceeding its specified voltage or current ratings, nor is it intended for applications requiring permanent, fixed-wall mounting where a panel-mounted socket would be more appropriate.

Key specifications

• Current rating: 16A
• Configuration: 5-pin (3P+N+E)
• Ingress protection: IP67 (dust-tight and water-resistant)
• Integrated phase inverter: Yes
• Application: Industrial and outdoor use

How to use

To use the FAMATEL 13316, ensure that the power supply is disconnected before beginning any installation. Insert the cable through the cable gland and connect the conductors to the corresponding terminals inside the plug housing, ensuring that the phase wires are correctly identified. Once the connections are secure, assemble the housing firmly to maintain the IP67 seal. If a motor connected to the plug rotates in the wrong direction, use the integrated phase inverter mechanism to swap the phases as indicated by the product markings, allowing for immediate correction without rewiring the entire cable.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your existing socket matches the 16A 5-pin industrial standard.
• Ensure the cable diameter is compatible with the plug's cable gland for a proper seal.
• Confirm that the electrical system voltage matches the plug's specifications.
• Check if the environment requires IP67 protection to prevent moisture ingress.

Usage recommendations: Always inspect the plug for any signs of physical damage or wear before each use. Ensure that the cable gland is tightened correctly to maintain the IP67 protection rating, and never attempt to perform phase inversion while the plug is under load or connected to a live power source.
