The Story
Ensure reliable and secure electrical connections on your vessel with the PX-2 Junction Box. Designed specifically for marine and boating applications, this waterproof junction box withstands the harshest marine environments, providing seamless wiring solutions above or below decks, even in areas exposed to occasional spray.
Connector Strips for Superior Performance
The PX-2 Junction Box comes equipped with molded nylon-encased connector strips that utilize screw compression technology to secure wires without the need for lugs. This design is ideal for electronic installations on boats, ensuring that brass barrels capture the wires and are held firmly in place by a stainless steel “finger” compressed by a screw. Importantly, the screws do not contact the wires, protecting the copper strands from cuts and breakage and complying with ABYC standards for marine electrical systems.
Key Features
- Durable Construction: Crafted from rugged, non-corrosive, high-impact polypropylene, the PX-2 is built to endure the demanding conditions of marine environments.
- Watertight Seal: The snap-on cover ensures a reliable watertight seal, preventing moisture ingress and safeguarding your electrical connections.
- Flexible Cable Management: Featuring “universal” cut-to-fit graduated diameter cable entries, the junction box accommodates a wide range of cable sizes, providing versatility for various marine wiring needs.
- Expandable Connectivity: Multiple position connector strips with captive screw compression wire terminals allow for extensive wiring options. Refer to the specifications table below for connector strip details per box.
- Conduit Access: Multiple knockouts are included for conduit access in addition to cable entries, enhancing the ease of installation and integration into your boat’s electrical system.
- IEC Waterproof Rating: Rated IP55, the PX-2 ensures that water projected in jets from any direction will have no harmful effects on the enclosure, making it ideal for marine applications.
