The Schneider PKE16M723 is a PratiKa Series straight wander plug designed for industrial low-voltage AC connections. Rated at 16 A with a 200–250 V operational voltage range, this 2P+E plug features a 6 h earth position and blue voltage identification for straightforward recognition in compatible IEC 60309 installations. Its robust grey RAL 7035 housing is made from self-extinguishing engineering polymer, with brass sleeve contacts and captive screw terminals for secure cable termination.
Built for demanding environments, the PKE16M723 offers IP67 ingress protection and IK08 impact resistance, making it suitable for applications where dust, moisture and mechanical durability are important considerations. It accepts cable cross sections from 1 to 4 mm² and cable outer diameters from 8 to 15 mm, with a Pg 16 cable gland entry and fair lead arrangement. Compact and practical, the unit measures 129 mm in height, 73 mm in width and 73 mm in depth, with an approximate weight of 0.144 kg.
