Vossloh-Schwabe 109162 plastic screw ring E14 black H=15 mm D=43 mm content_copy

The Vossloh-Schwabe Thermoplas socket type 109162 is a plastic screw ring socket for E14 lampholders, finished in black. It serves as a mounting component for light sources with E14 stainless steel lampholders in electrical luminaires and lighting fixtures. The socket is made of thermoplastic, ensuring high heat resistance and mechanical stability. The sleeve terminals enable a secure and reliable electrical connection to the light source. The rated capacity of the socket is 4/250, indicating a maximum current load of 4 amperes at 250 volts. These values are suitable for use in domestic and commercial lighting systems.

Socket type and screw ring are the central design features. The socket is specifically designed for E14 lampholders, which have a diameter of 43.0 mm and a height of 15 mm. The black lacquered surface ensures unobtrusive integration into various luminaire constructions. The use of thermoplastic as the material offers advantages in heat dissipation and mechanical durability, especially in applications with frequent switching of the lighting.

Applications include mounting in luminaires for indoor lighting, particularly in residential and office buildings where E14 light sources are common. The socket is intended for use in permanently installed luminaires, not for movable or portable lighting units. The sleeve terminals ensure a stable electrical connection that remains reliable even under mechanical vibrations or temperature fluctuations.

Functions and equipment in detail include the integrated sleeve terminals, which ensure secure contact with the light source. The socket is not designed for direct connection to a power source, but serves as an intermediate element between the light source and the electrical connection of the luminaire. The rated values 4/250 define the maximum electrical load, where 4 A represents the current and 250 V represents the voltage. These values are sufficient for most standard applications in indoor lighting.

Technology explained simply means that the socket is made of a thermoplastic material that can be deformed when heated but remains stable at room temperature. This material is resistant to mechanical stress and chemical influences, extending the service life of the socket. The sleeve terminals are designed to securely enclose the contact pin of the E14 light source and establish a conductive connection.

Compatibility and accessories refers to use with E14 lampholders. The socket is not suitable for other lampholder sizes such as E27 or E12.

Mounting and installation is carried out by mechanical fixation in the luminaire, where the socket is inserted into the designated cutout and secured. The electrical connection is made via the sleeve terminals, which are connected to the luminaire's wiring. The socket is not intended for direct connection to a socket outlet or mains supply, but is part of a larger luminaire construction.

Operational advantages include the high reliability of the electrical connection, the heat resistance of the thermoplastic, and easy installation. The black lacquered surface blends optically into many luminaire designs. The socket is designed for indoor use and does not require special environmental conditions such as protection against moisture or mechanical stress, as it is not intended for outdoor use.

The socket is not supplied with additional components such as connection cables, screws, or mounting aids.
