Priza alimentare 12VCC Marinco 12VRC

The Marinco 12VRC female power inlet is designed to provide 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 manufactured using 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 external 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, thereby minimizing water and dirt ingress. A sealing gasket and a waterproof cap complete the device for optimal electrical protection.

This socket is specifically designed for a 12VDC power supply and can handle 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.A Sealink interlock system that firmly locks compatible plugs in place, preventing accidental disconnections.

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

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

Yes, absolutely. Thanks to its reinforced nylon construction, nickel-plated brass contacts, and waterproof design with a protective cap, it is specifically engineered 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 operates on a 12VDC power supply and its consumption does not exceed 15 amperes.

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

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

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

The Marinco 12VRC socket is a standard cigarette-lighter female socket, meaning an internal diameter of approximately 21 mm (0.82 inches) to accept 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, observing polarity.Secure the socket in place using the provided or suitable mounting hardware.If you are not familiar with marine or automotive electrical installation, it is recommended to consult a professional.

Yes, it is strongly recommended to install a suitable fuse on the positive power circuit of the socket. The fuse must be sized according to the maximum amperage of the socket (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 crimping pliers for electrical connections.A screwdriver.Potentially a multimeter to check voltage and polarity.

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

Yes, it is crucial to use cables with an adequate cross-section to handle the 15 amp current and the circuit length, in order to avoid overheating and voltage drops. The polarity (positive and negative) must also 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, ensure 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 ingress.
