Here is the latest installment of our Weidmuller Terminal block product information newsletter.
Features of Weidmuller Z-Series Terminal Blocks
The Z-Series terminal block, moulded from Wemid material, is thermally stable up to 120 deg C yet still retains a high degree of flexibility and breakage resistance.The current bars are constructed of tin-plated copper to insure high conductivity and corrosion resistance.
The highlight of the Weidmuller Z-Series Terminal Block product line is a unique, tension-clamp technology that insures a secure, vibration-resistant connection. A stainless-steel spring is used to securely connect the wire to the current bar. A screwdriver is used to open the tension-clamp for the insertion of the wire. When the screwdriver is is removed, a high contact force is supplied by the stainless spring clamp insuring a gas-tight connection to the current bar.
The tension-clamp technology makes termination of the system wiring extremely fast. In addition, the wiring entries are generally on the top of the block in this product line. This means that it is easier to see where the wire is being inserted and helps reduce wiring errors.
The Z-Series terminal block product line includes feed-thru blocks, fuse blocks, disconnect blocks and much more and supports wire sizes from 0.05 sq mm to 35 sq mm.
All of these terminal blocks mount on industry standard TS 35 DIN Mounting Rail. Most of these blocks snap easily onto the rail without requiring any tools. |
