• Temporary or permanent outdoor electrical junctions

When it may not be suitable

This junction box is not intended for high-voltage power distribution or large-scale industrial cabling that requires significant internal space for multiple heavy-duty connectors. It is also not suitable for environments involving extreme chemical exposure or high-pressure steam cleaning, which may exceed the material's structural limitations.

Key specifications

• Ingress protection rating: IP68
• Dimensions: 42mm x 38mm x 26mm
• Material: Durable, weather-resistant plastic
• Application: Hermetic cable connection

How to use

To use the Plastrol PHZ-1, insert your cables through the designated entry points, ensuring that the seals are properly seated to maintain the IP68 rating. Connect the wires inside using appropriate terminals or connectors that fit within the internal dimensions. Once the connections are secure, close the housing firmly, ensuring all gaskets are aligned correctly to create a watertight seal. Periodically inspect the unit to ensure the housing remains intact and the seals have not degraded due to environmental factors.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that the internal dimensions are sufficient for your specific wire connectors
• Ensure the cable diameter is compatible with the box's entry seals
• Check if the installation location requires additional UV protection for long-term outdoor exposure

Usage recommendations

For optimal performance, ensure that all cable entries are tightened securely and that no debris is trapped between the sealing surfaces during assembly. If installing in direct sunlight for extended periods, consider placing the box in a shaded area to prolong the life of the plastic material.
