This overview compares the BEMKO 1 m Extension for Foldable Lighting Pole SSO Black 61627 with several alternative BEMKO products. Although all listed items belong to the same brand and category of electrical and lighting equipment, they serve completely different practical purposes. The main product is specifically designed to extend the height of foldable lighting poles, while the alternatives consist of cable glands, hermetic junction boxes, motion sensors, headlamps, and circuit breakers.
⚙️ The table below compares the key characteristics and functions of each product to highlight their structural differences and intended applications.
| Parameter | BEMKO 1 m Extension for Foldable Lighting Pole SSO Black 61627 | Bemko M-20 Gray Cable Gland | Bemko Hermetic Junction Box IP66 | Motion sensor BEMKO PIR 360° | LED Headlamp Bemko C49-LTC01 | BEMKO Miniature Circuit Breaker 3P C 32A | Practical Conclusion |
|---|
| Product Type | Lighting pole extension | Cable gland | Hermetic junction box | PIR motion sensor | Rechargeable headlamp | 3-pole miniature circuit breaker | Each device fulfills a distinct function: ranging from mast assembly and cable protection to lighting automation and circuit safety. |
| Intended Use | Increases the height of SSO series outdoor and commercial lighting pole installations | Ensures secure cable entry and strain relief in electrical enclosures | Protects electrical connections against dust and moisture under harsh conditions (IP66) | Provides automatic presence-triggered lighting control in indoor spaces | Delivers hands-free portable illumination for various activities | Protects three-phase electrical circuits from overloads and short circuits | The main product is a physical extension for lighting masts, whereas alternatives are used for wiring, connection, safety, and personal light. |
| Compatibility | BEMKO foldable lighting pole system SSO | Standard electrical enclosures and cables with M20 thread | External wiring and cables of various diameters | Lighting power supply networks (up to 200W LED / 400W incandescent) | Standalone personal use (1200mAh battery) | Three-phase power electrical systems (32A, 6kA) | These products are not interchangeable; rather, they are used together at different stages of setting up electrical and lighting systems. |
◎ The table below evaluates user needs and usage scenarios to help determine which product is most appropriate for specific tasks.
| Use Case | Recommended Product | Why |
|---|
| Increasing the height of outdoor or commercial lighting installations on a pole | BEMKO 1 m Extension for Foldable Lighting Pole SSO Black 61627 | This metal extension piece is specifically built to extend the illumination reach of compatible SSO foldable poles. |
| Routing and securing cables into an enclosure with dust and moisture protection | Bemko M-20 Gray Cable Gland E45-M-20-S/1 | Provides reliable sealing and cable retention in professional electrical setups. |
| Safe electrical connections outdoors or in damp environments | Bemko E04-HP2-PG9-IP66 Hermetic Junction Box | Features an IP66 ingress protection rating and integrated cable glands for harsh weather conditions. |
| Automatic lighting control in corridors, stairwells, or garages | Motion sensor BEMKO B50-SES05WH-B PIR 360° | Infrared sensor detects presence to automatically switch lights on and save energy. |
| Working or moving in the dark while keeping hands free | LED Headlamp Bemko C49-LTC01 | A compact, battery-powered head torch that provides bright and convenient personal lighting. |
| Protecting three-phase power circuits against short circuits | BEMKO Schelinger A02-G8-3P-C32 Miniature Circuit Breaker | A 3-pole circuit breaker with C-type characteristics to safely disconnect power during overloads. |
The BEMKO 1 m Extension for Foldable Lighting Pole SSO Black 61627 differs fundamentally from the alternative products because it acts as a structural mounting component for lighting poles rather than an electrical wiring accessory or automation device. It is best suited for professional setups where lighting reach needs to be elevated in outdoor areas. Choose this product if you specifically need to extend an SSO pole system, while the other products should be selected for cable management, electrical safety, or local illumination tasks.
