WAGO Gelbox Protects Connectors from Moisture

Condensation, heavy precipitation, powerful water jets: When moisture meets electricity, a short circuit can happen quickly. And encapsulation has been widely used to shield electrics from moisture. But now, reliable moisture protection for splicing connectors can be achieved even faster and easier with the WAGO Gelbox. It is ready for immediate use in a wide range of low- and extra-low voltage applications.

The complete system consisting of Gelboxes and WAGO Splicing Connectors has been VDE-tested and IPX8-certified.

What is the WAGO Gelbox?

The WAGO Gelbox is a compact box pre-filled with silicone-free gel. The Gelbox is available in six sizes and provides IPX8 levels of moisture protection for WAGO’s 221 Series COMPACT Splicing Connectors and 2773 Series COMPACT PUSH WIRE^® Connectors. This protection type means that the connectors are completely sealed against water and can be permanently immersed in water. Conventional potting compounds like polyurethane and silicone also meet IPX8 requirements.

However, the WAGO Gelbox’s distinctive feature is that it protects the electrical installation exactly where it matters – at the connection points – without permanently encapsulating the junction boxes. Unlike silicone-based gel, the WAGO Gelbox’s silicone-free gel supports a virtually unlimited number of applications.
