SolConeX 8570/12-305 socket – The ATEX-certified industrial socket that combines robustness, performance and ease of installation
Designed to meet the extreme requirements of environments classified as potentially explosive atmospheres, the SolConeX 8570/12-305 plug from R. STAHL sets the standard for reliability and safety. With a rated capacity of 16 A (expandable to 20 A), this socket provides a stable and durable electrical connection while ensuring maximum safety thanks to its ATEX and IECEx certifications. Whether in gaseous or dusty atmospheres, it is a reliable piece of equipment for critical industrial installations.
The SolConeX 8570/12-305 is engineered using state-of-the-art technology, including self-cleaning floating pins made from high-quality materials, which ensure optimum electrical contact over the long term, without corrosion or oxidation. This design also ensures easy insertion and removal, even under harsh conditions. Thanks to its pivoting strain relief system, cable installation is easy and secure, even if the cable is twisted. It is also completely dustproof and waterproof, with an IP66 protection rating, making it ideal for outdoor, damp or dusty environments.
The plug housing is made of glass fibre reinforced polyamide, a material known for its resistance to impact (IK10 according to IEC 62262), heat and industrial chemicals. This design choice significantly extends the service life of the plug and reduces maintenance costs, while contributing to the overall safety of the installation. In addition, the socket is available in a silicone-free version to meet the specific requirements of certain high-tech industries.
The SolConeX 8570/12-305 is designed for an ambient temperature range of -30°C to +55°C, allowing it to be used in very cold or very hot environments without any loss of performance. Its compatibility with CES equipment and the variants available for North American markets add to its flexibility of use. This plug also stands out for its compact design (176 mm long, 78 mm wide and 78 mm high) and low weight (0.331 kg), making it easy to integrate into all types of systems.
The SolConeX 8570/12-305 plug from R. STAHL is much more than just a connection accessory. It is a strategic safety component for your ATEX installations, combining robustness, performance and ease of use. It allows you to work with confidence, even in the most sensitive environments.
