ADVANTAGES OF 
HOLLOW WALL BOXES

 

 
MOUNTIG OF SM 68x40, SM 68x55 and SM 80x45 HOLLOW WALL BOXES

Drill a borehole of 68mm, for SM 80x45 a borehole of 80mm.

By turning the screwdriver to the right the metal plate automatically turns from its bed and approaches the wall with the fast three-step thread. Thereafter tighten the screw with moderate force to avoid any deforming of the box edge.

Once the socket or the switch is connected with conductors, put it into the box, adjust the horizontal position and proceed to tightening.

Cover the SM 80x45 distribution box with the SM 78-80mm cover.
 

MOUNTING OF VSM 105x105 HOLLOW WALL DISTRIBUTION BOXES

Marking by applying the enclosed pattern:

draw the initial line by means of a spirit level.

Place the pattern along the initial line, wipe it and mark the center of each 35mm borehole through the holes of the pattern.

Marking without the pattern:

position the box against the wall by means of a spirit level. Mark the center of each 35mm borehole through the holes of the box.

Drill 4 marked boreholes of 35mm.

Draw the lines between the boreholes.

Cut the wall along the lines and if necessary, correct the edge with a file.

By turning the screwdriver to the right the metal plate automatically turns from its bed and approaches the wall with the fast three-step thread. Thereafter tighten the screw with moderate force to avoid any deforming of the box edge.

Once the connection in the box is completed, cover the box with a screwless cover that allows for additional tightening of screws, if required. The cover is very thin and fits snuggly to the wall, hereby enabling slight adjustment to the horizontal level.
 
 

MOUNTING OF VM3 and VM4 HOLLOW WALL MODUL BOXES

Position the box against the wall by means of a spirit level. Mark the center of each 35mm borehole through the holes of the box.

Drill 2 marked boreholes of 68mm.

Correct the edge with a file.

By turning the screwdriver to the right the metal plate automatically turns from its bed and approaches the wall with the fast three-step thread. Thereafter tighten the screw with moderate force to avoid any deforming of the box edge.

Position the switch holder on the box by using a spirit level and tighten it.

Once the sockets or the switches are connected, insert them into the box and cover them with a decorative mask.

If a VM3 or VM4 box is to be used as a distribution box and/or the box temporarily contains no switches, cover it with the PM3/VM3 or PM4/VM4 cover.
 
 

MOUNTING OF VM7 HOLLOW WALL MODUL BOXES

Marking by applying the enclosed pattern:

Place the pattern horizontally by means of a spirit level.

Wipe the pattern and mark the center of each 68mm borehole through the holes of the pattern.

Marking without the pattern:

position the box against the wall by means of a spirit level. Mark the center of each 68mm borehole through the holes of the box.

Drill 2 marked boreholes of 68mm.

Cut straight lines between the boreholes.

By turning the screwdriver to the right the metal plate automatically turns from its bed and approaches the wall with the fast three-step thread. Thereafter tighten the screw with moderate force to avoid any deforming of the box edge.
 
 

ASSEMBLING OF SM 60-01 and SM 60-06 FLUSH-MOUNTED BOXES

SM 60-01 and SM 60-06 boxes may be assembled in any combinations.

For vertical mounting of switches in a frame simply join the boxes one into another and add the SM 60-03 extension piece.

For cross-linking of boxes for switches or sockets in a frame use the SM 60-04 linking element.

If the switches are separated one from another, insert between the linking elements the SM 60-03 extension piece that provides for the standard 91mm centerline spacing.
