Lapp EPIC H-B 16 Surface Mount Housing M25 19074000

The Lapp EPIC H-B 16 surface mount housing is a high-quality industrial connector component engineered for demanding electrical installations. Designed with a robust metal construction, this housing provides reliable protection for cable connections in harsh environments. It features a low-profile design and is equipped with two double levers for secure locking, ensuring that the connection remains stable even under mechanical stress. With an M25 thread size and a single cable entry point, it is optimized for efficient and safe cable management in industrial automation and control systems.

Advantages

The primary advantage of this housing is its exceptional durability and resistance to external environmental factors, supported by an IP65 protection rating. The metal casing offers superior mechanical strength compared to plastic alternatives, making it ideal for heavy-duty industrial applications. The inclusion of two locking levers ensures a vibration-proof connection, while the low-profile design allows for installation in space-constrained areas without compromising on performance or safety.

Suitable for

• Industrial automation and control cabinets
• Machinery and plant engineering
• Electrical installations requiring high protection against dust and water
• Applications where secure, vibration-resistant connections are mandatory

When it may not be suitable

This housing is not suitable for applications requiring high-pressure washdowns or complete submersion, as it is rated for IP65 protection rather than IP68 or higher. Additionally, it is not intended for use in environments where the cable diameter exceeds the capacity of the M25 thread size.

Key specifications

• Series: EPIC H-B 16
• Housing material: Metal
• Thread size: M25
• Protection rating: IP65
• Design: Low-profile, surface mount
• Locking mechanism: Two double levers
• Cable entry: 1 entry point

How to use

To install the housing, mount it onto a flat surface using the designated mounting holes. Insert the appropriate cable gland into the M25 threaded entry point to ensure a proper seal. Once the internal connector insert is wired and placed inside the housing, secure the connection by engaging the two locking levers on the sides. Ensure that the seal is correctly positioned to maintain the IP65 rating against dust and moisture.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that the M25 thread size matches your cable gland requirements.
• Ensure the surface mount location provides enough clearance for the locking levers.
• Check that the IP65 rating meets the environmental requirements of your specific installation site.

Usage recommendations

Always ensure that the locking levers are fully engaged and that the cable gland is tightened correctly to maintain the integrity of the IP65 seal. Regularly inspect the housing for signs of mechanical damage or corrosion if used in chemically aggressive environments.
