£6.69 (inc VAT: £8.03)
Summary
The Hochiki FN-IP-GASKET is a silicone mounting gasket designed specifically for use with FIREscape Nepto luminaires and exit signs. It creates a seal at two critical interfaces — between the mounting base and the fixing surface, and between the mounting base and the attached device — increasing the ingress protection rating of the installation to IP55.
For installations in environments where moisture or dust exposure is a concern, such as kitchens, plant rooms, covered external areas, or industrial spaces, the FN-IP-GASKET provides a straightforward and cost-effective way to meet the higher IP55 requirement without the need for specialist IP-rated housings or alternative luminaire models.

FAQs
What does the FN-IP-GASKET do?

The gasket is recommended wherever a FIREscape Nepto luminaire or exit sign is installed in an environment where moisture or particulate exposure is a concern. Typical applications include commercial kitchens, plant rooms, warehouses, car parks, covered external walkways, and other industrial or semi-exposed settings.

No — the gasket is designed to be straightforward to fit as part of the standard luminaire or exit sign mounting process, requiring no specialist tools or additional components.
