Power supply squeezes onto DIN rail
Only 22.5mm wide, the new rail-mounting Mini-PS power supply from Phoenix Contact offers big savings in valuable panel space.
With the same shape as function terminals, the UT-Twin and UT-Quattro multiconductor terminal blocks are available with cross-sections of 2.5 and 4mm2.
The compact UT 4 HESI fuse terminal block (5 x 20) with 4mm2 screw connection features a plug-in, double bridging shaft, which is designed to fit all UT terminal blocks in line.
This enables quick potential distribution to the 4mm2 feed-through, knife, lever-type disconnect and multi-conductor terminal blocks, which are the same profile.
Time and so money can be saved, particularly when assembling and wiring control circuits.
As part of the Clipline complete system from Phoenix Contact, all terminal blocks in the UT range are designed for use with accessories from other systems.
As well as featuring the same bridging system, the complete range of labelling and testing accessories match with the Quickon spring cage, and direct connection systems.
This allows combinations of all terminal blocks of the four different connection technologies to be combined at will.
