Eaton Specification Sheet - 2617BF-250
IP66 ingress protection keeps dust and water out of critical contacts, reducing unplanned downtime and protective enclosure failures. The business impact is lower maintenance costs and fewer service calls, especially in washdown and outdoor setups where exposure is high. In practical applications this means control panels in factories, shipyards, and offshore facilities stay online longer and require less protective sealing redesign. Four-wire, three-pole configuration delivers safer, code-compliant power distribution for 250 VAC systems, supporting reliable operation of motors, drives, and control circuits while simplifying wiring schemes for technicians. Flush mounting saves panel depth and reduces installation clearance, enabling compact, neater enclosures and faster commissioning. Brass construction provides excellent corrosion resistance in harsh environments, extending life in coastal and industrial settings. Two receptacles support feed-through or daisy-chaining in a single footprint, lowering part count and inventory. Pauluhn series compatibility ensures straightforward upgrades and standardized sourcing for maintenance teams.

FAQs
The 2617BF-250 is a four-wire, three-pole Pauluhn receptacle designed for standard Pauluhn panel cutouts. It uses a flush mounting method that fits typical 3.81 in depth and 5.31 in height footprints, simplifying retrofit installs in existing Pauluhn enclosures. With 20 A at 250 V AC, it integrates smoothly with common control panels and switchgear, reducing wiring complexity and part proliferation during upgrades.
Key specifications include a 20 A amperage rating and 250 V AC voltage rating, four-wire three-pole configuration, brass material, and IP66 ingress protection. The unit features two receptacles in a flush-mount design, suitable for ordinary/non-hazardous locations, which helps ensure reliable power delivery to motors, drives, and control electronics while resisting dust and water ingress in harsh environments.
Yes, the receptacle’s IP66 rating provides robust protection against dust and water ingress, making it appropriate for washdown areas and coastal installations. Brass construction adds corrosion resistance, and the flush-mount design reduces panel exposure. For marine applications, this unit aligns with Pauluhn series standards, helping maintain reliability in demanding environments while supporting shipboard control panel layouts.
The 2617BF-250 carries IP66 ingress protection and is specified for Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Locations. It uses brass construction and Pauluhn series compatibility to support durable, compliant installations in industrial environments. These characteristics help ensure reliable operation in non-hazardous settings and facilitate maintenance and inspections by meeting common industry expectations for rugged power receptacles.
The flush-mount design, IP66 protection, and brass construction combine to minimize ingress-related failures and corrosion, reducing maintenance intervals and spare parts usage. The two-receptacle arrangement enables efficient feed-through connections, lowering wiring complexity and inventory. Overall, this translates to shorter downtime during installs or upgrades and a lower total cost of ownership for control panels in industrial and marine environments.
