ELECTRIC.IE • The Magazine & Website for the Irish Electrical Industry • 19 Phoenix Contact Multi-level terminal blocks with Push-in connection for space-saving wiring on multiple levels ‒With the new PT 2,5-4L… four-level terminal blocks, Phoenix Contact offers a particularly compact terminal block family. The front connection and the four levels enable wiring in a confined space. They are just 5.2 mm wide and feature a Push-in connection. The new terminal blocks therefore use the uniform system accessories of Clipline complete and reduce logistics costs. The new product family consists of several four-level terminal blocks with Pushin Technology. In addition to feed-through versions, these also include function versions such as disconnect and knifedisconnect terminal blocks or sensor/actuator versions with and without LED indicator. The four-level terminal blocks have a function shaft on each level. This function shaft enables both vertical and horizontal potential distribution, thus achieving a high degree of exibility. Furthermore, the function shaft is suitable for accommodating various test accessories so that the individual terminal points can be tested quickly and easily. In addition, the terminal blocks are equipped with large marking areas, allowing the individual levels to be marked separately and providing an optimal overview. Power supply with maximum functionality: Protection in extreme environments ‒ The new Quint Power Plus version from Phoenix Contact is the solution for complex applications even under extreme ambient conditions. The power supply with a nominal output current of 40 A has a protective coating and ATEX and IECEx approval for potentially explosive areas (zone 2). With an integrated decoupling MOSFET, the power supply can be directly connected in parallel, thus increasing system availability. In addition, with its SIL 3 approval the Plus version ensures high operational safety. The Quint Power Plus version has double OVP (overvoltage protection) and thus protects the system against voltage increases. In the event of a fault, the corresponding output is switched off to protect the loads against overvoltages and the power supply connected in parallel ensures reliable supply. The possible uses primarily include applications in the process industry, shipbuilding, the energy sector, and even the railway industry. The robust input side with an input voltage of 85 V AC ... 264 V AC and an integrated gas discharge tube provides a high level of immunity (up to 6 kV) and ≥20 ms mains failure buffer time. The powerful output side with a static boost of 45 A, dynamic boost of 60 A, and SFB Technology enables easy system expansion and provides reliable starting of dif cult loads and tripping of standard miniature circuit breakers. Due to comprehensive signaling, preventive function monitoring with analog, digital, and relay contacts can report critical operating states at an early stage before faults occur. The new Plus version is rounded out by its unrivaled wide temperature range of -40°C to +75°C for use under extreme ambient conditions.
