ELEKTROPLAST SZPN 295X Hermetic Cable Connector 5x1.5mm2 16A 250V IP68

The ELEKTROPLAST SZPN 295X is a professional-grade hermetic cable connector engineered to provide secure and durable electrical connections in challenging environments. With an IP68 ingress protection rating, this connector offers complete protection against dust ingress and is fully capable of withstanding prolonged immersion in water. Designed for 5-pole configurations, it is compatible with 1.5mm2 cables and supports electrical loads up to 16A and 250V, making it a reliable choice for demanding outdoor and industrial electrical installations.

Advantages

The primary benefit of the ELEKTROPLAST SZPN 295X is its robust construction, which ensures long-term reliability even when exposed to harsh weather conditions or moisture. Its hermetic seal prevents environmental contaminants from reaching the electrical contacts, thereby reducing the risk of short circuits or corrosion. The compact design allows for easy installation in tight spaces, while the high-quality materials used in its manufacturing guarantee consistent performance and safety for various electrical wiring projects.

Suitable for

• Outdoor lighting installations
• Garden and landscape electrical systems
• Industrial equipment connections in damp areas
• Underground cable junctions
• Marine and waterfront electrical infrastructure

When it may not be suitable

This connector is specifically designed for 1.5mm2 cables and may not be suitable for installations requiring larger cross-section wiring. It is also not intended for high-voltage power distribution systems exceeding the 250V rating.

Key specifications

• Ingress protection rating: IP68
• Maximum current: 16A
• Maximum voltage: 250V
• Number of poles: 5
• Compatible cable cross-section: 1.5mm2

How to use

To use the connector, strip the insulation from the ends of your 1.5mm2 cables according to the required length. Insert the wires into the designated terminals within the connector housing, ensuring a firm and secure connection. Tighten the cable glands properly to compress the internal seals, which is essential for maintaining the IP68 hermetic integrity. Ensure that the housing is fully closed and locked before exposing the unit to environmental elements.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your cable cross-section is exactly 1.5mm2 for a proper fit.
• Ensure the total electrical load does not exceed 16A or 250V.
• Check the installation environment to ensure it does not exceed the IP68 protection limits.

Usage recommendations

Always ensure that the cable glands are tightened sufficiently to create a watertight seal, as improper assembly may compromise the IP68 protection rating. Periodically inspect the connection if it is located in an area subject to extreme vibration or temperature fluctuations.
