The Ses-Sterling Plio DK-PVC 10/12/16-1 black is a conduit grommet made of soft PVC, designed for use in electrical and installation technology. It serves as a protective and guiding element for cables and wires when passing through components such as walls, ceilings, or device housings. The grommet is available in black and is delivered in a pack of 100 pieces. The product designation DK-PVC 10/12/16-1 refers to the compatible hole sizes intended for the application.
Applications
The conduit grommet is used in electrical installations to protect cables from mechanical damage when passing through components. It is particularly suitable for applications requiring flexible yet stable cable guidance. The grommet is commonly used in building installations, during the mounting of electrical devices, or in industrial electrical technology, where secure and durable cable routing is required.
Functions and Equipment in Detail
The grommet is made of soft PVC, a material known for its flexibility and resistance to mechanical stress. The shape is cylindrical with a conical entry edge, enabling easy and smooth cable guidance. The black color ensures discreet integration into the installation. The grommet is not designed for power supply via cable (PoE), but is purely mechanical as a protective and guiding element.
Technology Explained Simply
Soft PVC is a thermoplastic material characterized by high flexibility and resistance to wear. The grommet is inserted through a hole in a component, with the conical shape facilitating easy installation. The inner surface is smooth to minimize friction and damage to cable insulation. The grommet is not self-piercing and must be inserted into a pre-drilled hole. The designation DK-PVC 10/12/16-1 refers to the compatible hole sizes intended for the respective grommet.
Compatibility and Accessories
The grommet is designed for holes with diameters of 10 mm, 12 mm, and 16 mm. It is used in electrical installations together with cables, wires, or other installation components. There are no specific accessories mentioned in the manufacturer's offering. The grommet does not feature additional functions such as integrated cable glands or electrical contacts.
Installation and Mounting
Installation is performed by simply inserting the grommet into the pre-drilled opening. The conical shape facilitates insertion, and the grommet adapts to the hole due to the elastic properties of soft PVC. No additional fastening is required. The grommet is not specified for use in damp or wet environments, as no IP protection rating is indicated. Use is intended for dry indoor areas or protected locations.
Operational Advantages
The grommet provides reliable mechanical protection for cables and wires, prevents abrasion damage, and ensures proper cable guidance. The use of soft PVC ensures long service life and resistance to mechanical stress. The smooth inner surface reduces friction during cable insertion, simplifying installation. The grommet is available in a pack of 100 pieces, making it economically attractive for larger installations.
