Pin & sleeve plugs features & benefits

• Mechanical cord clamp with silicone rubber grommet seal
and locking screw ensures a positive and watertight
strain relief system
• Tri-combo cord grip screws for convenience
• Durable impact resistant thermoplastic body

AH563R6W
• Color-coded front housing for easy and accurate identification
of voltages
• Oversized grounding pin assures mating only with oversized
female grounding sleeve; staggered contact to ensure ground
makes first and breaks last
• Engineered thermoplastic material improves cold impact
performance
• Spring-loaded self-closing cap with silicone rubber gasket
protects contacts when not in use. Watertight cap meets IP67
AH563P6W and IP69K protection standards
• Rugged materials selected for use in wet locations; provides
corrosion resistance
• Standard mounting footprints and blind holes provide
interchangeability with major brands
• Nickel plated pins offer long life corrosion protection
• Pins fully shrouded for mechanical protection; lockout hole
for plugs
AH563C6W • Threaded NPT cable entry provides efficient means of attaching
flexible conduit or wire mesh grips
• Tapered wiring pockets to ease insertion of stranded wire; deep
pockets with clear markings keep bare conductors isolated

Applications
The industry’s first pin & sleeve devices that are designed to address high pressure, high temperature washdown applications
Arrow Hart’s pin and sleeve devices are unlike other brands - our devices are the industry’s first to offer IP69K rated protection. Each
device has been carefully engineered to offer reliability, efficiency, and added safety protection in demanding wet locations, particularly
where harsh washdowns are a must!
