Adapters

Thanks to our underfloor distributors, electrical power is quickly available anywhere and without time-consuming installation work! Tailored, customized equipment according to choice.

As with all our products, we attach tremendous importance to using high-quality components and production techniques.

One material plays a vital role for GIFAS products: solid rubber made from butyl rubber. This elastomer possesses numerous properties that make it the ideal material for hard-working products. These properties include, for example, the excellent attenuation of oscillation and impact energy, the strong resistance to acids and bases, excellent resistance to weather, UV and ozone and a high electrical insulating capacity.

Further product properties of mobile distributors:

• All external metal parts made from rust-proof material
• Solid rubber sockets with nickel-plated contact sleeves
• Fuse elements protected with special shock-resistant cover
• SS screws set in rust-proof brass press-fit bushings with dual anchor
• Wired ready for connection
• Parts can be exchange individually
• Protection category up to IP 65
• Self-extinguishing and flame-resistant
• Comply with all minimum standards requirements for equipment of Category 2 “K2”

• The setup requirements for adapters are subject to the conditions of VDE series 0623 – especially part 4 – or in approximation to these.
• An adapter always comprises three parts and is made up of a plug,
  connecting cable and socket part (e.g. connector socket).
• The flexible connecting cable must be at least 1 m long in order to
  relieve strain on the wall-mounted socket.
• Not permitted are single-part adapters in which the plug and socket
  part of both systems are mechanically built together and operated from a single socket since the sockets are not designed for the resulting mechanical rigidity in the event of horizontal and vertical tensile stresses (lever effect).
• Adapters are only intended for short-term use, therefore a clearly visible external warning >For time-limited use only< is required.
