Full Description:
In Malaysia, "waterproof" isn't enough; you need "weatherproof." The IMITOS FW-86 boasts an IP66 Ingress Protection rating, meaning it is completely dust-tight and protected against powerful jets of water. Whether it’s a sudden afternoon monsoon or high-pressure cleaning in your porch, this cover keeps your electrical connections bone-dry and safe from short circuits.
Modern Smoke Design & Durability
Designed for the Malaysian market, the internal switch size is the standard 86x86mm, making it compatible with almost any single-gang wall switch or socket outlet. Its external dimensions (94×116×108mm) provide ample space for plug heads to fit comfortably inside while the cover remains securely latched.
Versatile Application Scenarios:
- Residential: Perfect for outdoor water heaters, garden festive lights, and autogate power points.
- Commercial: Essential for alfresco dining areas, car wash bays, and outdoor signage.
- Industrial: Robust enough for workshops and factories where dust and splash protection are mandatory.
Safety is a non-negotiable priority. By installing the IMITOS FW-86, you prevent accidental electric shocks and protect your home’s RCD from frequent tripping caused by moisture ingress. It’s a small investment for long-term peace of mind.
