Quick Summary

The 2617BF-208 receptacle is a rugged four-wire, three-pole power outlet designed for industrial control panels and harsh environments. When panel space is tight and reliable ingress protection is essential, mismatched connectors slow projects and drive maintenance costs. This Pauluhn series unit delivers IP66 protection and is intended for Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Locations, with brass construction for durability in washdowns and outdoor installations. By combining a compact footprint with two receptacles in one housing, it streamlines wiring and reduces enclosure openings. In practical terms, it supports 20A at 208 Vac, enabling efficient power distribution in manufacturing, process plants, and marine equipment while maintaining safety and compliance.

Four-wire, three-pole configuration provides separate ground and neutral paths, enhancing safety and simplifying coordination with equipment that requires four-wire power. This supports equipment grounding and minimizes fault currents, reducing risk during maintenance and startup in control panels, robust in manufacturing lines. Brass construction delivers excellent durability and corrosion resistance, extending service life in washdown areas and outdoor installations, lowering replacement costs and downtime. IP66 ingress protection safeguards against dust and powerful jets of water, ensuring reliable operation in harsh environments such as outdoor enclosures and marine facilities, reducing unplanned outages. Flush mounting minimizes protrusions, enabling tighter panel layouts and cleaner installations, which translates to faster assembly and improved enclosure integrity. The two-receptacle design within a single housing halves panel penetrations, reducing hardware, sealing complexity, and installation time while preserving accessibility for maintenance. The compact footprint, modest weight, and standard footprint simplify replacement and compatibility with existing Pauluhn-style systems, supporting faster retrofit projects and more predictable field performance.
