Intended use
The QUICK-CONNECT system is used as a screwless quick-connect system based on the
cage clamp principle in electrical plugs and sockets.
Plugs and sockets with QUICK-CONNECT are built for professional use. The installation and
the fixed connection to the mains supply should be carried out only by trained and qualified
experts.
Any use going beyond the intended use is considered to be improper. The manufacturer is
not liable for damages resulting from improper use. Any such risk shall be borne solely by
the user.
In case of unauthorised modifications or conversions, the CE conformity becomes null and
void, and thus, also all claims for warranty. Modifications may lead to risks for life and limb
as well as damage to the plugs and sockets or loads connected.
Factory-fitted labels and markings on the plugs and sockets should not be removed, modi-
fied or blurred.
Protect against foreign bodies and impact of weather
The plugs and sockets meet either the protection degree IP44, IP54 or IP67 in accordance
with DIN EN 60529 (VDE 0470-1), depending on the respective design. Each of these mean:
– Protection degree IP44:
– Protected against solid bodies with a diameter beyond 1.0 mm, e.g. a
wire
– Protection against water sprayed from all sides
– Protection degree IP54:
– Protected against dust in damaging quantity
– Complete protection against contact
– Protection against water sprayed from all sides
– Protection degree IP67:
– Dust-proof
– Complete protection against contact
– Protection against temporary immersion

Danger
Danger to life by electrical voltage
The supply cable may carry high electrical voltage that is fatal. Pay attention to the five sa-
fety rules of electricity:
1.De-energise
2.Secure the supply from being switched on again
3.Ensure the de-energised condition
4.Connect to earth and short circuit
5.Cover or cordon off adjacent live parts
Connecting a cable to a 16-A / 32-A plug or connectorg
Proceed as follows:
1. Make sure that the cable is de-energised.
2. Open the rotary lock in order to separate the front part (1) from the housing (2).
3. Push the cable about 50 cm wide through the cable gland and housing.
4. Strip the cable to the required length (16-A designs: 60 mm; 32-A designs: 70 mm).
5. Remove the insulation from the individual conductors (16-A designs: 9 mm; 32-A de-
signs: 12 mm). Twist the multi-strand copper conductors slightly by hand. Conductor
end sleeves are not necessary but may be used.
6. The terminals are open at the time of delivery. Guide the bare individual conductors
into the opening near the contact slide (5) and press the contact slide (4) in the di-
rection of the arrow to the side. The contact slide get latched and fixes the individual
conductor. Take care to see that only the bare individual conductor (without insulati-
on) is clamped. Pay attention to the marking of the terminals and ensure that the as-
signment of the individual conductors to the terminals is correct.

7. Check whether the individual conductors are seated tightly by pulling them lightly. If
this is not the case, open the terminal and repeat the previous step.
8. Connect the housing and the front part until the snap-on lock (6) latches.
9. Next, tighten the cable gland (3). The tightening torque must be between 4 Nm and
7 Nm for the 16-A designs and between 5 Nm and 9 Nm for the 32-A designs. Plea-
se refer to the embossing on the cable gland for the exact value of the respective de-
sign.

10. Check that the cable is seated tightly in the plug or connector.
Disconnecting a cable from a 16-A / 32-A plug or connector
1. Make sure that the cable is de-energised.
2. Lockern Sie die Kabelverschraubung (3).
3. Disconnect the joint between the housing (2) and the front part (1). Open the snap-on
lock (6) with a screwdriver and remove the housing from the front part by unscrewing it.

4. Push the housing and the cable gland back on the cable until the connections in the
front part are easily accessible.
5. Open the contact slide (4) by forcing it with a screwdriver and pull the individual con-
ductors from the terminals.
6. Pull the cable out of the housing and out of the cable gland.
