12VDC cigare sprausla F

The Marinco 12VRC female power socket provides a stable and reliable 12VDC electrical connection. It is ideal for marine, automotive, and recreational vehicle environments, offering a robust alternative to standard cigarette lighter sockets.

The Marinco 12VRC socket is made from materials selected for their durability:

The contacts are made of nickel-plated brass, ensuring efficient electrical conductivity and excellent resistance to corrosion. The housing is made of reinforced nylon, a polymer known for its robustness and ability to withstand continuous exposure to outdoor elements.

Yes, this socket is designed to be waterproof. It features a sealed body and an integrated plastic cap that protects the connections when not in use, minimizing water and dirt infiltration. A sealing gasket and a watertight cap complete the device for optimal electrical protection.

This socket is specifically designed for a 12VDC power supply and can support a maximum current of 15 amperes.

The Marinco 12VRC socket offers several advantages:

Superior marine-grade construction with corrosion-resistant materials (nickel-plated brass, reinforced nylon).Enhanced waterproofing thanks to its sealed body and integrated cap.The Sealink interconnection system that firmly locks compatible plugs in place, preventing accidental disconnections.

Yes, the construction of this socket meets the requirements of UL Listed and CSA Certified certifications, attesting to its compliance with recognized safety and performance standards.

The Sealink interconnection system is an exclusive feature of Marinco. It locks compatible plugs firmly into the socket, preventing unintended disconnections caused by vibrations or movement, ensuring a continuous and secure electrical connection.

Yes, absolutely. Its reinforced nylon construction, nickel-plated brass contacts, and waterproof design with protective cap make it specifically suited to withstand the demanding conditions of marine, automotive, and recreational vehicle environments.

You can plug in any device with a standard cigarette-lighter male plug, provided it runs on 12VDC and its current draw does not exceed 15 amps.

The Marinco 12VRC socket is compatible with standard male cigarette lighter plugs. To fully benefit from the safety and performance features, including the Sealink system, it is recommended to use compatible Marinco plugs.

Yes, this socket is specifically designed for reliable use in recreational vehicles, as well as in marine and automotive environments. Its robustness and resistance to the elements make it perfectly suited for these applications.

No, this plug is specifically designed for a 12VDC power supply. Using it with a 24VDC system could damage the plug or the connected device and is not recommended.

The Marinco 12VRC socket is a standard cigarette-lighter female socket, which requires an internal diameter of approximately 21 mm (0.82 inches) to fit the corresponding male plugs.

The socket is rated for a maximum current of 15 amperes. You can connect high-power devices as long as they do not exceed this limit. It is essential to check the amperage of your device before plugging it in to avoid overloading.

Installation typically involves the following steps:

Drill an appropriately sized hole for the socket body at the desired location.Connect the 12VDC power wires (positive and negative) to the socket terminals, ensuring correct polarity.Secure the socket in place using the provided or suitable mounting hardware.It is recommended to consult a professional if you are unfamiliar with marine or automotive electrical installation.

Yes, it is strongly recommended to install an appropriate fuse on the positive power circuit of the outlet. The fuse must be sized according to the maximum amperage of the outlet (15A) and the devices you plan to connect to it, to protect the wiring and equipment from overloads and short circuits.

Typical tools required for installation include:

A drill with the correct bit size for the mounting hole.Wire strippers and crimpers for wire connections.A screwdriver.Potentially a multimeter to check voltage and polarity.

The best location is a dry spot protected from direct spray if possible, even though the socket is waterproof. It must be easily accessible to the user and close to the 12VDC power source, taking into account the required cable length to minimize voltage drop.

Yes, it is critical to use cables of adequate cross-section to handle the 15 amp current and circuit length, to prevent overheating and voltage drops. The polarity (positive and negative) must be strictly respected when connecting the wires to ensure proper operation and system safety.

To ensure waterproofing, the socket is supplied with a sealing gasket. During installation, make sure this gasket is correctly positioned between the socket and the mounting surface. Additionally, the integrated cap must be used to protect the socket when not in use, preventing water and dust from entering.
