Elektrische aftakdoos ShiverPeaks BS08-01053 IP68 zwart ABS-kunststof

The ShiverPeaks BS08-01053 IP68 electrical junction box is a compact enclosure designed for protecting electrical connections in demanding environments. Constructed from black ABS plastic and manufactured in Germany, this junction box provides dust-tight and long-term waterproof protection suitable for indoor and outdoor installations. Its external dimensions of 155 mm width, 153 mm depth and 61 mm height make it practical for small to medium wiring junctions, sensor connections or cable terminations while maintaining a low profile.

Advantages

The enclosure combines the mechanical strength and impact resistance of ABS with an IP68 ingress protection rating, offering continuous protection against dust and immersion in water. The black finish is UV-stable for typical outdoor exposure and the compact footprint allows flexible mounting in constrained spaces. German manufacturing ensures consistent build quality and dimensional accuracy for reliable sealing and long service life.

Suitable for

• Protecting cable splices and wire terminations in outdoor or damp indoor areas
• Housings for small sensors, junctions for low-voltage control circuits and signal cabling
• Installation in garden lighting, irrigation controls, security sensor junctions and similar applications

How to use

Prepare cable entries by drilling or using appropriate gland fittings compatible with the enclosure; ensure all cable glands and connectors provide the same or better IP rating to maintain overall enclosure protection. Place internal wiring and terminations on a compatible mounting plate or secure directly to the body using recommended fixings. Close the lid and tighten all fasteners evenly to compress the sealing gasket and verify continuous sealing around the perimeter. For installations exposed to direct sunlight or mechanical stress, position the box to minimise repeated impact on the enclosure.

Recommendations

Choose cable glands and sealing accessories sized to the conductor and cable outer diameter; verify IP rating after installation. Avoid installing the enclosure where chemical solvents or prolonged high temperatures may degrade ABS. Periodically inspect the lid seal and fasteners for degradation and re-tighten if necessary to maintain IP68 performance.
