Safety instructions

The GHG 521 plugs and sockets
are not suitable for explosion
hazardous areas.
The operations must be carried out by,
electrical suitably trained i hazardous
area with kowledge of increased safety
explosion protection.
Modifications to the plugs and sockets or
changes of their design are not
permitted.
They shall be used for their intended
purpose and in perfect and clean
condition.
For replacement and repair only genuine
CCH / CEAG spare parts shall be used.
Repairs that affect the explosion
protection, may only be carried out by
CCH / CEAG or a qualified electrician in
compliance with the respective national
regulations.
Prior to taking the plugs and sockets into
ope-ration, they will have to be checked in
accor-dance with the instruction as per
section 6.
The sockets may only be used in
undamaged condition.
Before the initial operation, any foreign
matter will have to be removed from the the
plugs and sockets.
Observe the national safety rules and
regulations for prevention of accidents as well

Conformity with standards

The apparat is conform to the standards
specified in the EC-Declaration of conformity.
It has been designed, manufactured and
tested according to the state of the art and to
Item 1
DIN EN ISO 9001.
The apparats fulfil further requirements, such
as the EC directive on electromagnetic
compatibility (2004/108/EEC)

Field of application

The plugs and sockets GHG 521are suitable for
use in heavy industrial areas acc. to IEC 309!
The enclosure materials employed, including the
exterior metal parts, are made of high-quality
materials which ensure a corrosion protection and
resistance to chemical substances corresponding
to the requirements in a "normal industrial
atmosphere":
- impact resistant polyamide
- glass-fibre reinforced polyester
- special steel AISI 316 L
In case of use in an extremely aggresive
atmosphere, please refer to manufacturer.
5 Use/Properties
The GHG 521 plugs and sockets are used for
the power supply of local controls with varying
locations, as well as of electrical installations,
mobile machinery and driving gear in industrial
areas.
Acc. to IEC they are used up to max. 16A (see
page 7, Technical data).
The plugs and sockets can generally be used
for the voltage range laid down in IEC 309
(e.g. U 400V that corresponds to the voltage
N
range 380-415V).
The apparatus connected to the plug shall
be suitable for the applied mains voltage.
Fig. 1: In order to activate the socket, first the
bayonet ring item 2 is to be screwed off the
socket item 1 and to be folded open.
Fig. 2: After pushing the plug into the socket,
the bayonet ring of the plug item 2 is screwed
to its stop onto the socket in order to
establish IP 66 protection category.

Fig. 3: The switch item 3 is switched on,
thereby locking the plug in the socket.
After switching on the socket, the bayonet
ring item 2 of the plug is screwed to its stop
onto the socket item 1 in order to maintain the
protection category acc. to the type label also
whilst the plug is inserted.

In order to switch on the socket, the plug is
inserted, pushed fully home and then turned
through approx. 45° to the right. Thereby the
plug is locked in the socket (see Fig. 4).
Proceed in inverse order to switch off and
pull the plug from the wall socket with switch.
After having removed the plug from the
socket, close the latter with the folding cover
and secure it with the bayonet ring in order to
establish IP 66 type of protection.
The plug can be pushed into the socket
and pulled out of it only whilst the wall
socket with switch is switched off.
The user alone is responsible for the
appropriate use of this plug and socket
system.
After a short in the circuit, the
operativeness has to be checked.
The data as per point 3 and 4 will have to
be taken into account with the use.
Applications other than described are not
permitted without CCH / CEAG's prior
written consent.
