The four-wire, three-pole configuration provides separate power, neutral, and ground paths, improving fault isolation and safety for 125 VAC circuits in industrial equipment. This translates to more reliable motor control and reduced downtime in manufacturing lines. The robust brass construction delivers long-term corrosion resistance and mechanical strength, lowering maintenance costs in harsh environments such as wash-down zones and outdoor enclosures. With an IP66 ingress rating, the receptacle offers dust-tight sealing and protection against high-pressure water exposure, supporting compliance in everyday non-hazardous locations and reducing failed connections after routine cleaning. The flush mounting method saves panel space and delivers a neat, professional appearance in control panels, easing wiring management and future upgrades. Two receptacles at 20A and 125 VAC provide efficient power distribution within compact footprints, improving panel density and reducing overall hardware costs. Precise dimensions and a near-6.5 lb weight enable predictable fitment and safer handling during installation and service. The Pauluhn design lineage ensures compatibility with a broad ecosystem of matching receptacles and plugs, simplifying field replacement and inventory management for maintenance teams. Overall, these features collectively support faster commissioning, lower risk of water intrusion, and extended service life in industrial wiring and connectivity applications.

FAQs

The 2617BF-125 uses flush mounting, designed to sit neatly within panel openings for a clean install. It is compatible with standard Pauluhn 261/262 footprint and supports a four-wire, three-pole configuration, making it suitable for typical control panels and industrial enclosures that require a two-receptacle 125 VAC, 20 A solution.
The receptacle is rated for 20A at 125 VAC and configured as four-wire, three-pole. This arrangement provides dedicated ground, neutral, and hot conductors, enhancing safety and fault isolation in industrial wiring setups and motor control circuits.
Yes. The 2617BF-125 is specified for Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Locations and features IP66 ingress protection, enabling reliable operation in standard factory floors, assembly lines, and control panels where exposure to dust and washdowns is common without hazardous environment classifications.
Key compliance details include IP66 ingress protection and area classification as Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Locations. While SIL or CE status is not listed in the provided data, IP66 confirms robust protection against dust and water, aligning with common industrial safety expectations for non-hazardous applications.
Benefit drivers include durable brass construction that resists corrosion, reducing maintenance cycles; flush mounting for space efficiency and easier cleaning; IP66 sealing that minimizes ingress-related failures; and a 20A, 125 VAC rating that supports reliable power distribution. Together, these factors shorten downtime and lower total cost of ownership over the panel’s lifecycle.
