Kontakt-Simon KSE2/23/72 Socket-Outlet, Stainless Steel, IP66

The Kontakt-Simon KSE2/23/72 is a high-quality, durable socket-outlet designed to provide reliable electrical connectivity in challenging environments. Featuring a sleek stainless steel finish combined with a robust plastic housing, this unit is engineered to withstand external elements while maintaining a professional appearance. With an IP66 rating, it offers superior protection against dust and water ingress, ensuring safe operation in areas where moisture or debris might be present.

Advantages

The primary benefit of this socket-outlet is its exceptional durability and resistance to environmental factors. The stainless steel construction provides a corrosion-resistant surface that is easy to clean and maintain, while the high-grade plastic housing ensures structural integrity. The IP66 rating guarantees that the internal components remain protected from powerful water jets and dust, making it a dependable choice for both indoor and outdoor installations where standard sockets would fail.

Suitable for

• Outdoor residential areas such as patios or gardens
• Industrial workshops and garages
• Commercial spaces requiring moisture-resistant power points
• Utility rooms and basements

When it may not be suitable

This socket-outlet is not intended for use in environments where it will be fully submerged in water, as IP66 is designed for protection against jets of water rather than immersion. Additionally, it may not be suitable for areas with extreme chemical exposure that could degrade the specific plastic or steel materials used in its construction.

Key specifications

• Material: Stainless steel and plastic
• Protection rating: IP66
• Socket type: Single K45 with grounding

How to use

Installation should be performed by a qualified electrician to ensure all safety standards are met. The unit is designed to be mounted securely to a wall or surface, ensuring that the gasket and seals are properly aligned to maintain the IP66 integrity. Once installed, the cover provides access to the socket while protecting it when not in use. Ensure that the connected plug is compatible with the K45 standard and that the total load does not exceed the rated capacity of the socket.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that the mounting surface is flat to ensure a proper seal for the IP66 rating.
• Check that your existing wiring is compatible with the grounding requirements of this socket.
• Ensure the location is suitable for a single-socket configuration.

Usage recommendations: Regularly inspect the cover and seals for any signs of wear or damage to maintain the IP66 protection level over time. Keep the cover closed when the socket is not in use to prevent dust and moisture accumulation.
