FRAME 2-FOLD PURE WHITE SHINING

FRAME 2-FOLD PURE WHITE SHINING – A Comprehensive Overview

The FRAME 2-FOLD PURE WHITE SHINING is a meticulously engineered enclosure designed to house electrical outlets, switches, and other wall-mounted devices. Its sleek, glossy finish in pure white complements modern interiors while providing functional protection for the underlying components.

Key Dimensions & Physical Characteristics

• Overall Height: 80.7 mm (Hauteur / Altezza / Height)
• Mounting Height: 56 mm (Einbauhöhe / Altura de instalación / Installation height)
• Width: 151.8 mm (Breite / Largeur / Larghezza)
• Installation Width: 56 mm (Einbaubreite / Montaggio width)
• Depth: 11.4 mm (Profondità / Profondezza / Depth)

The frame’s compact profile allows it to be seamlessly integrated into wall cavities, ensuring a flush finish that is both aesthetically pleasing and space-efficient.

Material & Finish

• Construction Material: High-quality thermoplastic (Werkstoffgüte: Thermoplast)
• Surface Treatment: Glossy finish (Ausführung der Oberfläche / Diseño de la superficie) that resists fingerprints and light scratches.
• Color Code: RAL-like number 9010, corresponding to a pure white hue.
• Halogen-Free: The material is free from halogens, ensuring compliance with modern safety standards.

Installation Features

• Mounting Method: Clamp-based fixation (Fijación por apriete / Fissaggio con morsetti) that provides a secure hold without the need for additional fasteners.
• Suitable For: Underfloor installation (Unterflurkanaldose) and wall-mounted setups, but not designed for device-in-canal or surface-mounted applications.
• IP Rating: IP20 – suitable for general indoor use where protection against solid objects is required.

Functional Design Aspects

• Two-Unit Configuration: The frame accommodates two separate openings, allowing for the installation of dual sockets or a combination of socket and switch.
• No Text Field: The design does not include a labeling area; any required identification must be handled externally.
• Non-Flat Surface Finish: The frame is not a flat-surface (flächenbündige) type, providing a slightly recessed profile that enhances the visual depth of the wall installation.

Compatibility & Integration

The FRAME 2-FOLD PURE WHITE SHINING is engineered to work seamlessly with the Gira System 55 series, a widely adopted standard for electrical fittings. Its dimensions match the 55 mm mounting profile, ensuring that sockets, switches, and dimmers designed for this system fit perfectly within the frame’s cavities.

Aesthetic & Design Considerations

With its high-gloss finish and pure white color, the frame serves as a subtle yet elegant backdrop for wall-mounted devices. The glossy surface reflects ambient light, adding a touch of sophistication to living rooms, offices, or commercial spaces.

Environmental & Safety Compliance

• The thermoplastic material is free from halogens, reducing the risk of toxic fumes during combustion and aligning with contemporary environmental regulations.
• Its IP20 rating ensures that it offers basic protection against accidental contact while remaining easy to access for maintenance or replacement.

Installation Process Overview

1. Measure and Mark: Determine the exact location on the wall, ensuring a 56 mm clearance from adjacent fixtures.
2. Cutting: Use a suitable saw or router to create a cavity that matches the frame’s depth of 11.4 mm.
3. Positioning: Place the frame into the cavity, aligning it with the mounting width and height specifications.
4. Securing: Tighten the clamp-based fixation to secure the frame in place without damaging surrounding materials.
5. Device Installation: Insert sockets or switches into the two openings, ensuring they fit snugly within the frame’s recesses.

Maintenance & Longevity

The thermoplastic construction resists corrosion and is easy to clean with a damp cloth. Regular inspection of the clamp fixation ensures continued stability over time. The glossy finish may require occasional polishing to maintain its shine, especially in high-traffic areas.

Conclusion

The FRAME 2-FOLD PURE WHITE SHINING exemplifies a blend of functional design and aesthetic refinement. Its precise dimensions, halogen-free thermoplastic material, and glossy finish make it an ideal choice for contemporary interior applications where both performance and visual appeal are paramount.
