The connection technology expert CONTA-CLIP has introduced a new series of particularly easy-to-install terminal blocks with innovative push-in wire connection for fast, tool-free wiring of transformers.
The PTKS 4 transformer terminals for 4-mm˛ cable cross-sections are suitable both for direct mounting on the coil body and for snapping onto 10 mm x 2 mm aluminum mounting rails. Wires are pushed into the terminals’ connection channels from above for easy contacting with no further wiring effort. The high contact force of the spring ensures secure, durable fixation and contacting that withstands even severe vibrations and mechanical shocks.
Wires are disconnected in seconds by pressing the built-in, insulated pusher. Featuring a two-part construction consisting of the base terminal with freely accessible solder hooks and a cover, the PTKS 4 terminals can also be easily soldered onto the coil wires using automatic soldering methods. CONTA-CLIP offers terminal covers in various colors, e. g., for marking different voltages. The new terminal series enables test tapping at any potential.
The program includes the PQI 4/x/PTKS series of pluggable, isolated cross connectors with 2, 3 and 5 poles for potential distribution. In future, the manufacturer will complete the new product segment by adding PTKS 4/SI 5×20 and PTKS 4/SI 6.3×32 transformer fuse terminals for contacting the corresponding fine fuses in 5 mm x 20 mm or 6.3 mm x 32 mm formats. CONTA-CLIP’s SB 7,5 standard marking system is available for marking the terminals.
