The Story
The PX-3 Junction Box is an essential waterproof solution for marine and boating electrical systems, designed to provide secure and reliable wiring connections both above and below deck, even in areas exposed to intermittent spray and harsh marine environments.
Premium Connector Strips
Equipped with molded nylon encoder strips, the PX-3 ensures effortless wire management by utilizing screw compression to secure wires without lugs. Specifically engineered for marine electronics, the brass barrels effectively capture wires, held firmly by a stainless steel “finger” mechanism. This design prevents screw contact with the wires, safeguarding copper strands from cuts and breakage, and complies with ABYC standards for marine safety.
Key Features
- Constructed from rugged, non-corrosive, high-impact polypropylene, perfect for demanding marine environments
- Snap-on cover provides a watertight seal to protect against seawater intrusion
- Universal cut-to-fit graduated diameter cable entries accommodate a wide range of cable sizes for versatile installations
- Multiple position connector strips with captive screw compression wire terminals for easy and secure connectivity
- Various knockouts available for seamless conduit access and cable routing
- IEC Waterproof Rating: IP55 – capable of withstanding water jets from any direction without harmful effects
