With overvoltage protection and interference suppression filter
Product description
The socket strips are available in various country-specific variants with different functional elements. Special attention has been devoted to practical, universal fastening: Variable attachment facilities have been created with an angle bracket which may be inserted in four positions. Hence, for example, the 482 mm long socket strips may optionally be mounted on 482.6mm (19") mounting angles, the 482.6 mm (19") mounting frame, on the enclosure frame, or in the rear section of the wall-mounted distributor. Socket strips with a length of more than 482 mm can only be fitted on the enclosure frame. The socket strip may be inserted into all sections with a 25 mm hole pattern, without the need for additional mounting accessories. This makes selection much easier, as well as providing additional flexibility and saving on warehousing. Provision has also been made for cable routing of the infeed, and when mounting in the 482.6 mm (19") section there is adequate space to route the infeed between the socket strip and the profile rail without kinks. The arrangement of the IEC 320 sockets at a 45° angle allows unrestricted use of angular connectors.

FAQs
The DK socket strip supports mounting on enclosure frames, four-position angle brackets, and 19-inch mounting angles, with a 482.6 mm length and 25 mm pitch. This versatility enables quick relocation or reconfiguration of power distribution within control panels or industrial cabinets, reducing downtime during modification or expansion projects.
It provides 5 x D sockets with earthing-pin type F, rated for 250 V AC at 50 Hz and up to 16 A per channel. The unit ships with a 2 m H05VV-F3G1.5 connection cable and includes overvoltage protection plus an EMI suppression filter to safeguard connected devices and improve EMC performance.
Yes. The 482.6 mm length is designed for 19" mounting frameworks and enclosure frames. The system supports optional mounting frames or angles, plus rear-section integration in wall-mounted distributors, enabling flexible deployment within standard industrial enclosures.
The product references DIN 49 440-1 for electrical and mounting standards, with data alignment in ETIM 9 EC000330 and ECLASS 8.0 27142604. While not listing SIL or IP ratings, these standards support consistent procurement and interoperability in European automation environments.
By reducing wiring complexity and enabling modular mounting, maintenance becomes easier and faster, lowering labor costs during modifications. Overvoltage protection and EMI filtering decrease unexpected failures, contributing to higher uptime and a favorable return on investment in medium to large-scale panel installations.
