ELEKTROPLAST AQUANT 5046-67 Triple Socket IP65 Black

The ELEKTROPLAST AQUANT 5046-67 is a high-quality triple socket designed for reliable surface mounting in challenging environments. Engineered with a robust construction and an IP65 ingress protection rating, this unit provides complete protection against dust ingress and water jets, ensuring safe electrical connectivity where standard sockets would fail. Its sleek anthracite finish and durable housing make it a practical and aesthetic choice for both residential and industrial applications.

Advantages

The primary benefit of this triple socket is its exceptional durability and resistance to environmental factors. The IP65 rating guarantees that the internal components remain dry and free from debris, even when exposed to splashing water or dusty conditions. The inclusion of a protective cover adds an extra layer of security, preventing accidental contact and shielding the sockets when not in use. With integrated grounding contacts and a high current capacity of 16 A, it offers a safe and stable power supply for multiple devices simultaneously.

Suitable for

• Outdoor areas such as patios, balconies, and gardens
• Damp environments including basements and laundry rooms
• Workshops, garages, and sheds
• Industrial facilities requiring dust-tight electrical installations

This product may not be suitable for environments requiring specialized explosion-proof equipment or areas where the socket will be permanently submerged in water. It is designed for surface mounting, so it is not intended for flush-mounted installations within walls.

Key specifications

• Number of sockets: 3
• Protection rating: IP65
• Mounting type: Surface
• Current: 16 A
• Voltage: 250 V
• Grounding: Yes

To install the socket, ensure the power supply is disconnected at the main circuit breaker. Mount the base securely to a flat, stable surface using appropriate screws. Connect the electrical wires to the terminals according to local electrical codes, ensuring the grounding wire is properly attached. Once wired, secure the housing and ensure the protective cover is correctly seated to maintain the IP65 seal.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that the surface is flat to ensure the IP65 gasket seals correctly
• Ensure the cable entry points are properly sealed during installation
• Check that your existing wiring is compatible with a 16 A load

For optimal performance and safety, always ensure that the protective cover is closed when the socket is not in use. Periodically inspect the housing and seals for any signs of wear or damage, especially if the unit is installed in harsh outdoor conditions.
