Kaiser Elektro 1159-70 Installation Housing for External Insulation

The Kaiser Elektro 1159-70 Installation Housing for External Insulation is a high-quality flush-mounted box designed for use in thermal insulation composite systems (ETICS). It allows for the safe and secure installation of standard electrical devices such as switches, sockets, and motion detectors in external walls with insulation thicknesses from 80 to 200 mm. The housing is made of halogen-free plastic and is flame retardant (B2), ensuring safety and compliance with building regulations.

Advantages

This installation housing prevents thermal bridges, reducing heat loss and improving energy efficiency. Its adjustable depth can be cut to match the exact insulation thickness, providing a perfect fit. The IP30 protection class guards against dust and water splashes, while UV resistance ensures long-lasting performance outdoors. Multiple pre-punched cable entries (M20/M25) simplify wiring.

Suitable for

• Installation of single electrical devices in external insulated walls
• Use in ETICS (External Thermal Insulation Composite Systems)
• Flush-mounted applications in new builds and renovations
