## Long description

The PCE LIGHT EL-161 is a professional-grade hermetic junction box engineered to provide a secure and durable housing for electrical connections.

Advantages
This junction box stands out due to its high-quality material composition, which offers excellent resistance to environmental stressors. The IP55 rating guarantees that the internal components remain protected against moisture and debris, reducing the risk of short circuits or connection degradation. Its smooth surface design not only facilitates easy cleaning but also allows for a discreet installation on walls or ceilings. The spacious interior provides sufficient room for cable management, making it a versatile solution for complex wiring configurations.
Suitable for
Surface-mounted electrical installations in residential buildings
Industrial facilities requiring dust and moisture protection
Outdoor areas protected from direct heavy rainfall
Garages, workshops, and utility rooms
Connecting electrical circuits in damp environments
This product may not be suitable for applications requiring full submersion in water or high-pressure water jet cleaning, as it is rated for IP55 protection rather than higher waterproof standards. It is also not intended for use in hazardous environments where explosion-proof equipment is strictly mandated by safety regulations.
Key specifications
Ingress protection rating: IP55
Dimensions: 164 mm x 119 mm x 76 mm
Surface finish: Smooth
Mounting type: Surface-mounted
Application: Indoor and sheltered outdoor use
To use the PCE LIGHT EL-161, first determine the optimal mounting location on a flat, stable surface. Secure the base of the box to the wall using appropriate screws and anchors. Feed the electrical cables through the designated entry points, ensuring that proper cable glands are used to maintain the hermetic seal. Connect the wires according to local electrical codes and secure the lid firmly to ensure the gasket is compressed evenly, thereby maintaining the IP55 protection rating.
What to consider before purchase
Verify that the dimensions are sufficient for your specific wiring and terminal block needs
Ensure the mounting surface is flat to allow the gasket to seal correctly
Check that your cable entries are compatible with the box design to maintain the IP rating
Confirm the environment does not exceed the IP55 protection capabilities
For optimal performance and safety, always ensure that all cable entries are properly sealed with suitable glands. Periodically inspect the junction box for any signs of physical damage or degradation of the seal to maintain the integrity of your electrical installation.
