ABB 16Amp EX ATEX Plugs & Sockets - Hazardous Area Plugs

(Zone 22, Category 3) ATEX Certified For Dust Explosive Atmospheres

ABB industrial plugs and sockets are a part of the comprehensive ABB program of high quality low voltages products for industries, buildings and OEM´s.

ABB Critical & Safe range of plugs and sockets are used for applications with high demands on safety, durability and performance.

These plugs and sockets are ideal for applications with frequent connection/disconnection, and to use in public areas.

The housing on the Critical & Safe range are made of PBT or aluminum. PBT is a tough plastic material that withstands heavy-duty usage and most chemicals found in industrial environments.

The aluminum housing is a mix of aluminium and silicon called silumin, which gives an excellent protection against corrosion whil
