The terminal block system for all applications CLIPLINE complete

CLIPLINE complete connection technologies PT Push-in connection UT screw connection ST spring-cage connection With Push-in connection technology, you can easily connect conductors from 0.25 mm2, directly and without tools. The special contact spring enables easy insertion with up to 50% lower insertion forces. Furthermore, this connection technology features a high contact quality. Universal in every application. The screw connection technology is characterized by the multi-conductor connection and extremely high contact force. The screw connection technology is known and accepted worldwide and can be used everywhere. The proven connection technology for applications that are sensitive to vibration. The spring-cage always exerts the same constant force on the conductor, regardless of the infl uence of the operator. Wiring is carried out easily via the space-saving front connection. QT fast connection COMBI plug-in connection RT bolt connection Connect a conductor without stripping the insulation. Fast connection technology enables wiring times that are up to 60% shorter. The conductor is connected easily, reliably, and quickly with just one turn of a standard screwdriver. Plug-in connections for the most stringent universal demands. The nominal current of the connected conductor is carried through the plug-in contact. Connectors and basic terminal blocks with four connection technologies can be freely combined with each other, thanks to the uniform plug-in zone. Robust connection for conductors with ring cable lugs. RT combines the bolt connection with the advantages of the CLIPLINE complete system, such as simple potential distribution through plug-in bridges, large marking surfaces, and uniform test accessories.

Standardized bridging system Flexible plug-in bridging system To enable fast and individual potential distribution, the terminal blocks of the CLIPLINE complete system have two function shafts. These are arranged in one line over all the terminal blocks, allowing for a combination of connection technologies. This makes it possible to implement all the tasks of potential bridging within a very short time. Bridging between non-adjacent terminal blocks By removing individual contact tabs from the standard bridge, you can establish bridges between non-adjacent terminal blocks. This type of bridging enables the potentials of several terminal blocks that are not directly adjacent to be led into one terminal strip. A marker groove with markings for the tabs used provides a clear overview. Terminal technology The contact tabs of the bridges consist of two fl at metal plates which lie one above the other and are off set from each other. Due to this off set and the low thickness of the individual pin components, the tabs are pressed together like a pair of scissors when inserted into the terminal. A gas-tight contact is created due to the counterforce of the resulting elastic deformation. Easy potential distribution Switchable bridging Vertical bridging The reducing bridges of the CLIPLINE complete system enable the simple connection of terminal blocks with diff erent nominal cross sections and connection technologies. Power blocks can be created at speed with the reducing bridge. The bridge bars enable individual cross connections. In test disconnect terminal blocks, the 2 to 4-position bridges ensure a visible current transducer short circuit. They can be positioned on either side of the disconnect point in the bridge shaft and securely latched in place. The short- circuit switching operation is safely executed with screw terminal points, which must be performed deliberately with a tool. The upper and lower level of a multi-level terminal block can be connected with the vertical bridges from Phoenix Contact. To do this, the vertical bridge is pushed easily through the function shaft of the upper level to the lower level. PHOENIX CONTACT 5

Standardized test system Testing in the function shaft Test adapters Alignable test plugs In order that the individual terminals can be tested quickly and individually, the terminal blocks of the CLIPLINE complete system can be tested in the function shafts. The CLIPLINE complete system features various test plugs and test adapters to support this function. The CLIPLINE complete plug-in test system also includes narrow test adapters. These adapters are used, for example, in test disconnect terminal blocks with lower pitches. Due to the compact design, there is not enough space for multi-position 4 mm test plug assemblies. These adapters enable eff ortless terminal testing. The alignable test plugs enable all measurement and testing work to be realized more quickly. The test plugs can be easily snapped together to create a test block. In order to skip a terminal, spacers are snapped into place between the test plugs. Two-piece test plugs Alignable test plugs for assembly Additional test points The CLIPLINE complete test system includes two-piece test plugs. These test plugs enable individual color combinations. The test plugs are equipped with a solder connection and are inserted into the function shaft or into the test points intended for them. A comprehensive range of test tasks can be realized with alignable test plugs. The test housings can be assembled individually with various contact metals and are therefore ideally suited for test laboratories. In order that the current fl ow can be tested despite an occupied bridge shaft, the terminals of the CLIPLINE complete system have additional test points. The terminal blocks with spring-cage connection or Push-in connection (PT and PTV) are equipped with extra test points. The terminal blocks with screw or bolt connection technology can also be tested via the terminal screws. PHOENIX CONTACT 7

Functional inserts and marking Compact fuse plugs Patented component connectors The fuse plugs transform the disconnect terminal blocks of the CLIPLINE complete system into fully-fl edged fuse terminal blocks for overload and short-circuit protection. When off set, the compact P-FU ...-5 fuse plug fi ts onto the disconnect terminal blocks with a 5.2 mm pitch, thereby providing maximum space savings. The P-CO component connector makes it possible to accommodate components via spring-cage contacts quickly and securely. Coding ensures connection without the risk of polarity reversal. For assembly, the spring-cage connections are opened or closed inside the connector by turning a standard screwdriver. Isolating plugs, switching locks, and feed-through connectors Thanks to the multifunctional disconnect zone, the disconnect terminal blocks of the CLIPLINE complete system can be converted quickly and easily. Unintentional switching is prevented by a switching lock. A feed-through connector converts a disconnect terminal block into a normal feed-through terminal block, and the isolating plugs enable rapid switching between the two functions. Large-surface marking Warning labels All terminal blocks have high and fl at marker grooves. High marker grooves are mainly used for marking terminal blocks and for accommodating high terminal markings. Flat marking grooves are normally used for marking individual terminal points. They can accommodate small, fl at markings. The warning labels of the CLIPLINE complete system can be used to reliably mark any terminal block with a cross section of between 2.5 mm2 and 16 mm2. These labels make it clear which terminals serve as the mains connection and thus remain live after the main switch has been switched off . Terminal block group marking The CLIPLINE complete system includes various methods for space-saving terminal block group marking. Depending on the marking requirements, the system includes marker carriers for end brackets and marker carriers for marker grooves. All materials are available unprinted or labeled in accordance with your requirements. PHOENIX CONTACT 9

COMBI connection system Powerful connection technology Latching and cable housings Protection against contact The COMBI range features a free choice of connection technologies. Thanks to the standardized and coded plug-in zone, terminal blocks and connectors can be combined with one another regardless of the connection technology. Thanks to the cover spring, the contact system of the COMBI terminal blocks can withstand extreme vibration levels. The system enables a wiring of up to 41 A nominal current, 1,000 V nominal voltage and a nominal cross section of 6 mm2. Latches which are snapped onto the outside of the connector housing are available for attaching the connectors to the basic terminal blocks. Snap-on strain relief elements and closed cable housings are available to relieve the strain on the cables at the connectors where necessary. The cable housings are of a two-piece design for easy mounting. The COMBI system provides outstanding user protection, because both the basic terminal blocks and the connectors are touch-proof. Crimp COMBI Coupling systems Panel feed-throughs The compact connector housings for crimp contacts suitable for automated processing can be plugged into all COMBI basic terminal blocks of the CLIPLINE complete terminal block system. These housings enable time- saving production and startup in modular plant engineering. Furthermore, the housings are ideally suited for fully automated cable harness production. The COMBI system features various fl oating couplings for enabling the safe and space- saving accommodation of plug-in contacts in cable ducts and distribution shafts. The rail- mountable versions of the couplings provide a solution for applications with a low height. These can be mounted on both the NS 15 and NS 35 DIN rails. Panel feed-throughs can be realized effi ciently by simply snapping the SSL panel feed-through onto the standard coupling. The panel feed- through is inserted into the cut-out and automatically latches into place. PHOENIX CONTACT 11
