OEX ACX5609 Twin Engel Style DC Socket 20A Combined at 12V Dual Dust-Proof Covers Flush Mount Panel Unit

Where the ACX5607 provides a single socket, the ACX5609 doubles the capacity in the same installation footprint two accessories from one panel cutout, one set of wiring, one clean flush-mount result. Each socket has its own dust-proof cover. Heavy-duty plastic housing, 12V and 24V compatible. Covered by a one year warranty.

Product overview

The ACX5609 is the practical solution for 4WD, caravan and marine installations where two Engel-style accessories need to be powered from the same location a fridge and a compressor, a fridge and a phone charger, or any two accessories using the 29mm Engel DC plug format. Instead of cutting two separate panel holes or mounting a second unit separately, the twin housing provides both sockets in a single flush cutout, keeping the installation clean and intentional.

The combined rating is 20A at 12V across both sockets together. If both accessories are running simultaneously, their combined current draw must not exceed this limit confirm the rated draw of each accessory before assuming both can run at full load at the same time. Each socket includes a dust-proof cover, which matters in off-road and dusty environments where uncovered sockets collect grime between uses.

Frequently asked questions

What accessories plug into this socket? It uses the same 29mm Engel-style DC socket format as the OEX ACX5607 single socket. Any accessory with an Engel-style plug will work, including Engel portable fridges and a wide range of other 12V and 24V accessories that use that connector.

Is the 20A rating per socket or for both together? The 20A at 12V is a combined rating across both sockets. If both accessories are drawing 10A each simultaneously you are at the limit. Check the current draw of your specific accessories before running both at full load at the same time.

Can I use both sockets at the same time? Yes. Keep the combined draw within 20A at 12V or 10A at 24V across both sockets together. Running two portable fridges simultaneously, for example, should be checked against their rated current draw before assuming both can operate at full load concurrently.

What panel cutout does this unit require? Each socket opening is 29mm but the total cutout for the twin housing will be larger. Contact us to confirm the full panel cutout dimensions before drilling.

How does this differ from the ACX5607? The ACX5607 is a single Engel-style socket rated at 15A at 12V. The ACX5609 provides two sockets with a 20A combined rating at 12V and includes dust-proof covers on both. For installations where two power points are needed in the same location, the ACX5609 is the cleaner solution.
